"Brand New Eyes" by Russell Robinson

My friend wrote a poem and shared it with me. I was impressed, so here I share it with you.


"After moments of reflection, I often ratify or even contradict my own statement or belief. 
It often confuses the mind of my overseers and spectators because of the radical change in thought. 
But man if they were to pry a little deeper, into themselves and attempt to view it from a change authorized by Jesus, maybe just maybe then their minds could comprehend to that type of offset encryption. 
In the past I could look at situations and see them as wrong or inhumanely justified due to uncertainty and disbelief, but now that I stand on turf mended by God’s hands themselves, I can see the fruit bore from it. The view has a major difference in appearance when it is gazed upon at through the lenses of Jesus Christ. Those specs multiply your vision in millions of different view points that not only justify reasoning but also lead to a common destination. 
That destination is known to be a better relationship with Jesus and our Heavenly Father and then ultimately in Heaven. 
Here I now tend to stand proudly and preach what I practice which is 'Open your eyes not to see through them with your own perspective, but from that of Jesus.'"
