[Discoveries] 06-25-08 When eyes are opened -- Luke 24:31

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*Then their eyes were opened. -- Luke 24:31*/

The disciples were walking through sorrow like none they had ever 
experienced before. Their Lord was dead, and no explanation could 
account for it, no theology could soothe their aching hearts.

Pouring out their grief to a stranger as they walked along the road to 
Emmaus, they wrestled with their world gone mad. Nothing made sense. All 
their hopes were shattered.

Then their eyes were opened.

So it is with us. There are no answers, no reasons to account for all 
that has gone wrong in our lives. Each of us has walked through 
bewildering times when it seems that our Lord has left us all alone. But 
then, as we pour out our sorrows to the One who seems a stranger, our 
eyes are opened. Then we learn the truth. We discover that He was there 
all along, walking with us, comforting us, telling us the truth, 
responding to our invitation for Him to enter our lives and make His 
home with us.

Be encouraged!
