Night Prayer 

The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

Inspiration 

What we see has such a great impact on our inner being. And what we choose to look at, even more so. When our eyes feed our lust and greed, the darkness of envy grows within us. But when we look with wonder at God’s handiwork, or with compassion on God’s children, His light fills us and radiates from us.

Prayer 

Lord, thank You for the gift of sight. I marvel each day at the beauty and grandeur of Your creation. Protect my eyes from the sights that would distract me, from the allure of treasures or the lusts of the flesh. Help me to keep my eyes pure so that Your light may remain in me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
