"De-pression and OP-pression"

"our beautiful summer impatients"

Dear One,
DE-pression and OP-pression cause you to fail to see the IM-pression of spiritual blessings coming your way.
Seeing is believing. Being able to see into the spiritual world, where I’m working full-time for you, will impress upon your natural mind the images of My workings for you and will dispel any depressions and oppressions that have plagued you.
Depression causes you to only see what has not been done yet, diverting your attention from what has already been done. Depression pushes down, causing you to be blind to all spiritual benefits and activities. There is no gratitude, no thanksgiving where depression has blinded you to Me and My workings.
If you will submit your mind to Me, you will see the spiritual activity going on in the heavens around you, and your mind will not dwell on the unfinished work. Things temporal are unfinished, things spiritual are already finished.
Daily seek to see with heavenly, spiritual eyes and see what I have already done in the areas you have prayed about. Sometimes you think nothing has been done, when in reality mountains have been moved and weak foundations have been torn up and redone. Just because you haven’t seen the building does not mean that constant quality work has not already been done. You have just been blinded to its progress.
That’s why thanksgiving and praise are so important. When you don’t see the spiritual activity being accomplished, you should still thank Me anyway, knowing that I am working in your behalf because I love you and you are My child and the apple of my eye.
You consider yourself to be a good parent. I am the Perfect Parent. The things you do for your children are miniscule compared to what I am doing for you at this very moment and every moment of your day.
Sometimes you must remove the wall of depression to see My activity. You have the authority to do it!
Love, God
Spiritual Eyes (a song)
When it looks like everything is dark and light cannot be seen,
Open your eyes to heavenly sights and happiness you will glean.
It’s only dark with earthy eyes, but heavenly eyes see more.
They see with God’s eyes, the One whom you adore.
He sees more than you’ll ever see with earthly eyes alone,
He sees angels scurrying around with orders of their own
Orders that he’s given to them, to bring you joy and peace.
He’s your provider and protector, and blessings he’s released.
So always see with heavenly eyes and watch the blessings flow.
You’re not limited to earthly eyes, for earthly eyes are slow,
They never see the Heavenly Hosts working to bring your way
Everything God has promised to you. It’s all on the way today.
