Sometimes it's helpful to understand the focus of other Christian leaders.
Over 10 years ago,
Dr. Tokunboh Adeyemo
penned these observations to challenge us today. This challenge is
appropriate as we near
the coming 2020 Christmas celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ - in the midst
of a world in turmoil, pain, sickness and suffering. May “Sight vs Vision” by
Dr. Adeyemo, help us focus on God’s potential for each of us as we
daily choose to live for Christ.
Sight sees problems, vision sees potential,
Sight sees plight of man, vision sees power of God,
Sight sees barriers, vision sees bearings,
Sight sees buffeting, vision sees blessings in disguise,
Sight sees the natural, vision sees the supernatural,
Sight sees the visible, vision sees the invisible,
Sight sees the present, vision sees the past, present and future,
Sight sees danger only, vision sees opportunity as well,
Sight sees dead ends, vision sees new beginnings,
Sight sees the status quo, vision sees the possibility,
Where sight gives up, vision goes on.
(See
Isaiah 55:8-9;
Jeremiah 29:11-14a)
