In my 1st book, Beach Blessings, I share my thoughts about God while enjoying and photographing His beautiful scenery at the beach. The beach gives me time to relax and savor the moving of His Holy Spirit, while listening to the contemporary Christian music on my phone.
I’m praying my book will bring Holy Spirit peace and calm to your heart as you drink in God’s beautiful scenery and learn of His faithful promises to you.
Please feel free to comment, ask questions, share prayer requests, or declare praise reports, when you’re directed by the QR code to my YouTube Channel at the end of my book, or simply share your thoughts while on this blog.
Please take a moment today to listen to the beautiful music and lyrics to: “Beloved” by Jordan Felice and “Testify” by needtobreathe.
Psalm 150:6, “Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.”

Isaiah 7:14
“Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign:
The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son,
and will call Him Immanuel.”
Isaiah 9:6-7
“For to us a child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over His kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.”

Looked down from a broken sky Traced out by the city lights My world from a mile high Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black tar Hold on for the sudden stop Breathe in the familiar shock Of confusion and chaos
All those people going somewhere Why have I never cared?
Give me Your eyes for just one second Give me Your eyes so I can see Everything that I keep missing Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted The ones that are far beyond my reach Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten Give me Your eyes so I can see
Step out on a busy street See a girl and our eyes meet Does her best to smile at me To hide what’s underneath
There’s a man just to her right Black suit and a bright red tie Too ashamed to tell his wife He’s out of work, he’s buying time
All those people going somewhere Why have I never cared?
Give me Your eyes for just one second Give me Your eyes so I can see Everything that I keep missing Give me Your love for humanity
Give me Your arms for the broken-hearted The ones that are far beyond my reach Give me Your heart for the ones forgotten Give me Your eyes so I can see
I’ve been there a million times A couple of million eyes just moving passed me by I swear I never thought that I was wrong
Well, I want a second glance So give me a second chance To see the way You see the people all alone
What Does It Mean To Have God’s Eyes???
Matthew 7:1-5
“Do not judge,
or you too will be judged.
For in the same way you judge others,
you will be judged,
and with the measure you use,
it will be measured to you.
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye
and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
How can you say to your brother,
‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’
when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?
You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye,
and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
Psalm 19:8
“The precepts of the Lord are right,
giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.”
Matthew 13:13-16
“This is why I speak to them in parables:
‘Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.
In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:
‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
For this people’s heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’
But blessed are your eyes because they see
and your ears because they hear.”
When You Pray…
“Lord, Give Me Your Eyes!!”
Be Prepared To See What You’re Missing…
To Really See What God Sees!!
Are You Ready???
“Yes, Lord…
I don’t want to see…
With my eyes…
They see nothing beyond myself in the mirror…
With my heart…
It feels nothing beyond my own little safe world…
My arms…
They touch nothing for eternity…
And only reach for pleasures in this life…
I NEED…
Your Eyes, Lord…
They see lost and hurting people everywhere…
Direct me to them…
So I can minister through Your Holy Spirit!
Your Heart, Lord…
Which feels deep love for everyone of Your children…
Do you wonder why you have to, Feel the things that hurt you, If there’s a God who loves you, Where is He now?
Maybe, there are things you can’t see And all those things are happening To bring a better ending Some day, some how, you’ll see, you’ll see
Would dare you, would you dare, to believe, That you still have a reason to sing, ’cause the pain you’ve been feeling, Can’t compare to the joy that’s coming
So hold on, you got to wait for the light Press on, just fight the good fight Because the pain you’ve been feeling, It’s just the dark before the morning
My friend, you know how this all ends And you know where you’re going, You just don’t know how you get there So just say a prayer.
And hold on, cause there’s good for those who love God, Life is not a snapshot, it might take a little time, But you’ll see the bigger picture
Once you feel the way of glory, All your pain will fade to memory
