My eyes are priceless! They are marvelous examples of a delicate and intricate mechanism. They are constant reminders of the Creator’s wisdom and power. Through them I look out upon the world in which I live.
My eyes have been fair to me under the most exacting conditions. They have stood the test again and again. I use them constantly from waking until bedtime. In all that I have attempted, my eyes have had their part.
My eyes have enabled me to enjoy the work of artists, authors and poets. My eyes have enjoyed the wonders of God’s creation: the birds, flowers, trees, seas, mountains and plains.
My eyes have seen my loved ones: parents, sisters, relatives and friends. My eyes have looked on multitudes of people, among whom were some of earth’s notables.
The eyes of those who believed on Him here will see Him as SAVIOUR. Yes, my eyes shall “see the King in His beauty.” They will see the One “who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree” (1 Peter 2:2424Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. (1 Peter 2:24)).
But the eyes of the unbelievers will see Him as JUDGE. To meet Him as judge will mean to perish, for as judge He will have to say, “Depart from Me.” “Ye will not come to Me, that ye might have life” (John 5:4040And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life. (John 5:40)).
The greatest of all sights is still ahead of me. “We know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.”
Face to face, oh blissful moment!
Face to face — to see and know,
Face to face with my Redeemer,
Jesus Christ, who loves me so.
Will you see Him as Saviour — or as judge? Three things you will certainly do:
Why wait? Make Him your Saviour and friend. Do it now!
