Not many people care at all about what they watch with their eyes.
Yet, eyes are the window into our body. Through it, the mind is fed.
If the “eyes”, as it were, will not be careful of what it watches, they be sure that all manners of terrible sights will be thrown into the heart of the individual through this crucial window : immoral thoughts, inhuman thoughts, inappropriate thoughts, horrific thoughts, horrendous thoughts – just name it, will have a field day in such a life.
We must therefore be careful of what we permit our eyes to get fed on.
There is a direct connection between what we do and what we see. What a man focuses on will determine what he will do, just like a driving force on an object.
If you feed your mind on things that will encourage you, things that will strengthen your journey of life, if you focus on things that will edify you and build up your inner man, you will be empowered for the journey ahead.
If on the contrary, you feed your mind on things that will pervert your actions, on things that will encourage you to engage in unworthy and inappropriate actions, you will so act, and you will end up paying dearly for such.
In the class of videos or films, there are things you must never watch.
In the class of books, there are materials you must never read.
In the class of sight-seeing, there are scenes or places you must never visit.
The more you are mindful of what you watch, the more disciplined life you will live.
Good day to you.
