“The eye is the lamp of the body; so then, if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light.”
— Matthew 6:22 NASB1995
💡 Vision That Fills with Light
Jesus teaches that what we focus on shapes our whole being. A clear eye—one fixed on God’s purposes—fills us with light. But when our gaze is clouded by greed, jealousy, or distraction, darkness settles in.
Kingdom living requires single-minded devotion. A pure focus brings clarity, peace, and purpose.
🔗 Ante-Nicene Reflection
Early believers guarded their eyes from corrupt influences. They believed that what they looked upon shaped their hearts and lived with focused discipline to reflect Christ.
💭 Reflect
- What has my attention most these days?
- Am I fixing my eyes on the eternal or being pulled into distraction?
✨ Prayer
Lord, clear my vision. Help me see what matters and turn away from what darkens my heart. Fill me with Your light. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
