Hearing, in my opinion, is next to sight as one of the most important senses. Many deaf and hard of hearing people go about their day without this sense operating at full capacity and living a full life. When it comes to hearing on a spiritual level, I do not necessarily want to discuss audible…

Sight is one of the most important senses of the human body. It enables us to see what is around us and identify an object for the other senses to utilize. Matthew 6:22-23 reads, “The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of…
