Does the light of Christ shine in your eyes?

Question

Can you discern your own spiritual growth by the way your eyes look, or others' spiritual growth by looking at others' eyes?

Answer 1

Newsboys Shine

dull as dirt
you can't assert the kind of light
that might persuade
a strict dictator to retire
fire the army
teach the poor origami
the truth is in
the proof is when
you hear your heart start asking,
"What's my motivation?"

and try as you may, there isn't a way
to explain the kind of change
that would make an Eskimo renounce fur
that would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster
unless you can trace this about-face
to a certain sign...

Chorus
shine
make 'em wonder what you've got
make 'em wish that they were not
on the outside looking bored
shine
let it shine before all men
let 'em see good works, and then
let 'em glorify the Lord

out of the shaker and onto the plate
it isn't Karma
it sure ain't fate
that would make a Deadhead sell his van
that would make a schizophrenic turn in his crayons
Oprah freaks
and science seeks a rationale
that shall excuse
this strange behavior

when you let it shine
you will inspire
the kind of entire turnaround
that would make a bouncer take ballet
(even bouncers who aren't happy)
but out of the glare
with nowhere to turn
you ain't gonna learn it on "What's My Line?"

Answer 2

Yes, sometimes you can look at a person and see what is happening in their souls. I don't think we can discern our own state or growth but sometimes God gives us sight into someone else.
(Looking at ourselves usually leads to pride, self-condemnation, etc.)


god bless

Answer 3

The what of the what? Uh, well the only light that reflects off the gelatin of my eyes are A). Natural Light and B). light bulbs.

Answer 4

I wish it can be possible. In old testament, after moses came from the mountain seeing the bush, his face shown.
Many people who really have God in their life, do show thier love in thier smile, behaviour, etc.
But God gives special gifts of each of us.
I have recieved the Holy Spirit and I feel His touch in my hand when I lift up and praise Him. Many may have different gifts from God.

Answer 6

If it did, I'd put my sunglasses on and tell the light to go bug someone else.

Answer 7
