Lift Up Mine Eyes

Earlier this morning I thought about a scripture verse that includes the line, "I will lift up mine eyes." I thought about all the things I miss when I just focus on the joys and struggles that make up my little life. I miss out on the bigger picture and my place in the mosaic of this universe. I am here for a divine purpose that's much bigger than those three numbers on my bathroom scale. For today, I am opening myself to seeing what God wants me to see rather than just seeing my own self-created (and self-sustaining) mini-dramas.

What about you? What might you see when you lift up your own eyes? What divine purpose does the universe hold for you?

Today I will:

1. Tell the truth.
2. Ask God to show me a deeper truth.
3. Go to a water aerobics class.
4. Meditate for 15 minutes.
