Ecclesiasticus 13 Poem / Eye Contact ðŸ’•

Ecclesiasticus 13:25

[25]The heart of a man changeth his countenance, whether it be for good or evil: and a merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.💕

If you know me 

You know this one fact 

I’m not really into eye contact 

For the eyes never lie 

The words can be the sweetest 

Many learn how to manipulate 

Body language 

I have seen professional pretenders

Live multiple lives 

Digging them self deeper in a hole of lies 

And everyone believed them , but I 

Could see the truth in their eyes 

For when we come Into sound doctrine 

The Most High gives us discernment 

Knowledge and wisdom 

To see the light in a person 

And their countenance 

For when a man’s heart changes 

So does His countenance 

For once our eyes were dimmed 

During the time we were rapant 

In sin 

But when we came into Christ , 

There was this light 

That came to our eyes 

And it starts with the mind 

Trickles down to the heart 

For the first one to see our change 

Is our Most High God 

And there will be times in this life

When pain will fill our eyes 

For being in Christ 

Doesn’t mean we don’t face trials 

So I pray this prayer 

When we are hurt 

That we always think of the word 

Think of Christ , and let His light 

Once again fill our eyes 

For that is all we need to change our 

Countenance 

Is a merry heart , that is filled with precepts , 

So let us think of our Lord 

And remain cheerful 

For this is what makes us different 

Than the rest of this world 

That we can find joy , 

Even when we are hurt , 

So even though we are in pain 

There is light in our eyes 

And that is no lie 

Because our heart believes in Christ 

He is our light that shines 

Even through the temptations and trials 

And this is the light that I look for 

When I must look in the eyes of the ones I know 

We all have good days , and not so good days , 

But if Christ is in our heart 

That light , doesn’t change 

So if you know me , 

You know this fact , 

I’m not really into eye contact , 

But it’s the only way 

To see the truth sometimes , 

 What do you see when you 

Look into my eyes ? 

I pray that you see 

Someone who loves to serve 

The Lord 

Who walks as perfectly as she can with a merry heart 

Faithfully 

💕
