Blind Sight

How is it that we cannot see what is right in front of us sometimes? In driving, it's called a blind spot. It is not that you cannot see physically. There is no natural impairment, but sometimes you are not looking for certain things. We can often be surprised at things that can be very obvious to those around us! There is a certain television commercial with a popular character called "Captain Obvious". Each commercial plays on the irony of what is hidden but also in plain view. It is humorous on TV but not in real life.

In some cases, we prefer our "blindness" to the light of truth, however, ignorance is not bliss! There are those that will offer their direction for your life, but it only leads you away from God and further from light. It is so important to follow only those who are led of the Lord themselves! Otherwise, you may both fall.

Prayer: Lord, open our eyes to the truth. Make Yourself known to us in a greater way. Teach us how to come out of our darkness and learn to see in Jesus name we pray, Amen!

Action: Ask God to make you an example of one who follows in truth, then be ready to go where He leads!
