You see, I see

You see me walking with a limp
I see me walking by faith 
You see me working at a gas station 
I see me aligned and in position 
You see me driving a 20 year old car 
I see another answered prayer

You see me as a single woman with 5 children 
I see me as a woman of strength 
You see me as a sinner
I see me as forgiven
You see me struggling 
I see me prospering 

You see me as scared
I see me as a conqueror 
You see me sick
I see me healed 
You see me with a bonnet on my head
I see God’s covering and protection over me

You see me as rejected
I see me as redeemed 
You see me not married 
I see me living in peace 
You see me as forgotten 
I see me as Chosen…

I see God while you see me.
Get yo eyes off me and see what God is doing in your life. If you can’t see God doing anything, that’s because you ain’t got yo eyes on Him. 
You got yo eyes on the wrong things.

With that being said, don’t seek to see me.
“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.”
Now get yo eyes off me!
