        His Eyes

I'm so human
But you're so divine
Help me to see others
Through your eyes
Not mine.

Help me to look past
Other's mistakes
Remembering I'm not perfect
For I haven't yet walked
Through the pearly gates.

this reminded me of how we should be trying to see things the way Jesus does - letting the holy spirit teach us as we walk in Christ.  I love these short prayers of yours!

Yes, we all need to see others through His eyes. We even need to see ourselves through His eyes too! This is a wonderful poem, Septsong!

Ya know so far you've written in short verse, but really left me thinking!  This is another wonderful prayer. One I say quite a bit, but certainly need to say more of! Thank you!

Where there is faith,
there is love.
Where there is love,
there is peace.
Where there is peace,
there is GOD.
Where there is GOD,
there is no need.

makes me think of all the people who judge us or think they are perfect when they are not.

Isn't it so true that we always think people are too judgemental yet it is we ourselves that normally do the judging.  Great poem to live by.

I would cry to look upon others or even myself through His eyes.  Wow, this poem says so much in so few words.  Beautiful
