Today I have an appointment for cataract surgery at 9:00 a.m. I had one eye done in October 2009 and now the doctors are ready to work on the other one.
I’m not sure about the surgery’s impact upon my blog writing. I will probably write one tomorrow, but if I don’t do so, please keep checking back with me.
I would not be averse to your saying a little prayer about it.
We need good eyes. The heart needs good eyes too. Paul said so. Here’s what he said:
For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way (Ephesians 1:15ff NIV).
