When Jesus talks about our eye, He refers to the way we perceive life’s events. If we perceive them poorly and negatively, they will adversely affect us emotionally as well as physically. Depression isn’t necessarily a sin, but we can indeed fall into sin by an inaccurate or distorted perception of God, others, or our circumstances. The way we view our problem oftentimes is the problem! If our perception is poor, opportunities become terrifying and invitations appear as threats.
