While reading this verse during Donna's sunday school class today, the last phrase "their eyes cannot see afar off", it occured to me that the more we sin the more short-sighted we become. It is the exact opposite of having an eternal perspective where your eyes see beyond this earth into eternity and your choices reflect decisions that will bring eternal happiness rather than just the here and now what is right in front of me (short sighted).

thank you for sharing your insight about spiritual shortsightedness and how an eternal perspective is the opposite of that. Gives me the desire to always repent and be obedient to the Lords commandments so i can see things clearly.
