dove's eyes.

((THERE'S TWO POSTS TODAY!!!(scroll down for the first post :D ) ))

Have you ever wondered what it meant when Song of Solomon mentioned dove's eyes to describe the gaze of the Lord...or the Shulamite's gaze upon the Lord? I know I have. But today I discovered it. Today I recieved revelation of it. Let me take you on my adventure ....

Doves

• Do not have peripherial vision. They can only look straight forward. (His eyes are fixated upon me)
• Something else cannot catch His eye causing Him to turn quickly away (He loves my face too much to be distracted)
• Innocence -- Doves only have one mate in their entire lifetime. If that mate dies then that's it, they're done. There's only one and no other option (He's devoted to me and me alone.)

So for my side of things....

Having Doves eyes allows me to have an undistracted gaze upon the one whom I love. This statement right here is so powerful to me because what someone sees with their eyes is what gets into the heart and it is through the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks. Therefore, seeing only the Lord with undistracted eyes, causes only the Lord to dwell within my heart. Having nothing but the Lord in my heart brings nothing but redemtive words to my mouth...nothing but life.

Another quick thing, just something that relates back to a vision I recieved for myself a few months ago...of a golden heart -- representing innocence and purity (a buncha other stuff, but that's the just of it). Doves eyes also speak of purity and loyalty. This relates directly back to my golden heart. Only one statement can be said, and it is powerful indeed....

WHAT THE EYES SEE, THE HEART ENCOUNTERS.
