Proverbs 20:12
The hearing
ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.
The Lord
has given us ears to hear and eyes to see.
He has made all things for His purposes including our ears and
eyes. Both of these need to be
surrendered to Him and used by Him to help us accomplish all that He has for us
to do and realize.
Our ears
should be hearing songs that praise Him, words that encourage and hearts that
open up with needs and concerns. Our
eyes should see beauty He has made, entertainment that is appropriate and into
the eyes of those who need a touch from Him.
In Romans
chapter 12 we are told to present our bodies to the Lord as a means of service
or worship. We can do this every day
when we shower and clean the outside, we can present all of our body parts to
the Lord to be used by Him in a way that He desires them to be used. Our body parts are to be surrendered to the
Lord as servants of righteousness. Our
ears can hear a need or concern and go and meet it. Our eyes can see a problem or conflict and we
can be peacemakers to bring about a healing.
The Lord has made our hearing ears and the Lord has made our seeing
eyes. Let us remember that if He has
made them, He knows how we are to use them.
