Believe it or not, every 5 seconds, someone in the world goes blind. Today there are approximately 10 million blind and visually impaired people in the United States alone.
Surprisingly, almost all blindness in the United States is the result of common eye diseases. Did you know that three quarters of the world's blindness could be prevented or treated? So, how's your eyesight? Now, what about your spiritual vision?
Proverbs 29:18 tells us that "Where there is no vision, the people perish" also translated "Where there is no revelation (or prophetic vision), the people cast off restraint."
This passage is speaking of spiritual blindness. Isn't it obvious that our world is stumbling about? It's telling you, if you live outside of God's way, your spiritual eyesight will dim. If you don't see the importance of God you can lose your way.
Now here's something that's critical to understand: You can't really live life to the full—you can't truly identify your God-given potential without the right vision. You miss out on the real purpose of your life.
You can choose to prevent this. It's time for your spiritual eye exam. Now more than ever you can focus on solutions for your life. Don't close your eyes to the truth and become spiritually impaired. For a clear outlook, turn to God and follow His Word. Dedicate yourself to seek the truth and do it! Don't be blinded. Set your eyes on God's plan for you and your life will have clarity.
