An ‘Eye-Opening’ Experience

“As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”

Luke 21:1-4

 

Don’t go through life without looking up and seeing!

I wonder how many others were in the temple that day.

Why didn’t they see what Jesus saw?

Jesus looked and He saw…

Jesus saw with the eyes of the Holy Spirit.

He saw differently than others.

He saw with the heart of His Father.

That changed His perspective just as it can change ours.

Don’t look through the lenses of past experiences, prejudices or even natural expectations.

Look with the eyes of the Holy Spirit and the heart of the Father.

It will change what you see and how you see it.

Think for a moment how you would ‘see’ if you lost your natural eyesight.

You would come to depend more on sound, smell, touch.

Let’s hunger for a ‘seeing’ with His heart.

Let’s desire to perceive through the Spirit of God.

I promise you it will be a real ‘eye-opening’ experience!
