Give Me Your Eyes


My 18 year old daughter, Alyssa, put together a slideshow of her short term mission trip onboard the Logos Hope in Malaysia. The song is Give Me Your Eyes by Brandon Heath.

"Blessed is he who is kind to the needy." Proverbs 14:21b
"Whoever is kind to the needy honors God." Proverbs 14:31b
"Be kind and compassionate to one another." Ephesians 4:32a
"Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble." 1 Peter 3:8

"Let my heart be broken by the things that break the heart of God." ~Bob Pierce

    This is a great post. Bless your daughter for having the strength and godly power that so many people find lacking in theirself. I know she will be rewarded for this mission trip and probably already feels rewarded in her heart. Thank God for people like her. I love the song.

DVD Review and Giveaway: A Mile in His Shoes
