See The Future, See The Now

Yesterday I talked a little about seeing with your heart.  Its a phrase I like to use to denote looking beneath the surface of things in order to see their true nature.  This skill can be learned, although it is essential to have the Spirit of the Lord to aid you.

I also spoke about seeing into the future, seeing the potential of all the different pieces of our lives.  I sincerely believe that God will show us our futures as we are able to listen to His voice, which often speaks directly to our hearts.  One thing I've found is that the timing of blessings can make or break me.  After all, if I'm disabled tomorrow, my baby needs to eat tomorrow.  Our needs coincide with divine providence.

As we explore this heart sight, keep in mind that God can show your heart things about today as easily as tomorrow or the end of the world.  For me, it has been easier to practice seeing today clearly...I'll let him teach me how to see through time later.

Practice accepting the validity of your emotions.  If a co-worker makes you angry, accept to yourself that you are angry.  Don't lose your temper, don't hurt someone else or yourself; that fixes nothing.  But it blinds your heart sight to deny that you are actually angry.  God has the power to heal your anger, but He can only heal what you can/will see.
