Writing Luke 19
Good morning, I hope everyone had a good weekend. This morning as I wrote my mind began to wonder, even to previous chapters. I had to work to keep focused to where I was. The funny thing is, is that it was the current writing that was making me think about the chapters before. I guess that shouldn’t surprise me since they all do go together.
As I looked back over the chapter and to the thoughts I was having, I became a little sad. I thought about the men grumbling about Jesus going to Zacchaeus’ home, the men in men in the parable who did not want the nobleman to rule over them, the Pharisees, the chief priests, and the principal men looking to destroy him… All of these people were blinded to see who Jesus was.
It made me think of the rich man Lazarus, who died and thought about his brothers who were still living. He wanted them to know what awaited them if they didn’t change. I thought about my loved ones who have already died. No matter what side they fell on, I bet their message would be the same. They would want me to see Jesus.
It is sad to know some of us will never see Jesus. Our eyes will continue to stay closed. I pray for our eyes to be open. Let us see Jesus and the salvation He offers us.
God is so Good!!
Hope everyone is having a wonder day!
