Open the eyes of my Heart

I just finished the 4th of our 5 weekend services. I'm taking a little break before we do our last one at 5pm. I have to thank God because most of everything went well, we had some challenges but overall it was a great weekend. We sang this song which is old school but still so powerful titled "Open the eyes of my heart". We sing, asking God to open our eyes, so we can see him lifted high through our lives, in alignment with those words we should also ask for him to open our eyes so we can see need. What am i talking about? allow me to explain:

After just finishing the 4th service today i was walking out, excited to go take a break, and I was on my way there, when i pass a gentlemen. I reached out my hand just to say hi, I said, "hi, what's up, are you having a great day?" He mumbled under his breath as to say alright but i could not understand because he was turning his head, as if something were wrong. Now, i was running out and i almost turned to continue walking but i thought his reaction was a little weird, so i turned towards him again and i asked "you doing good man". He looked at me with these eyes of desperation and turned his head as if ashamed, and he broke down in tears.
I found myself immediately engaged, and before I even started talking, internally i started thanking God because it was another opportunity to share hope, with someone who feels hopeless. It took less than a minute talking to him to find out what challenges he was facing because he could not hold back, then his wife joined our conversation. The three of us were in tears in the side hallway of our lobby, but there was no shame because God was doing something awesome in that moment. I had the privilege to pray with them, the moment was very up-lifting for all three of us. Man i thankyou Lord for letting me be there.

I encourage you all to always keep your eyes open for the need, it is out there, suffering people are out there, and God uses us to be there beacon of light and hope. Take care guys,
