What do YOU see?

Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the intelligent and have revealed them to infants; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will". . . Then turning to the disciples, Jesus said to them privately, "Blessed are the eyes that see what you see! For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, bud did not hear it." Luke 10:24

Jesus had sent out 70 disciples to preach the Good News, and they had returned rejoicing at the early success of their ministry. These words from this morning's Daily Office are Jesus' own rejoicing in their ministry, thanking his heavenly Father. He talks about a way of seeing and hearing, of understanding the world, of having a sense of being called to advance God's desires for his kingdom on earth.

As one of God's disciples, what are you seeing? What are you hearing? How can you advance God's kingdom on earth this day?

Have a blessed day! Your brother in Christ, Don+
