----EYE SIGHT / VISION ~`
-[Please Read / Mark 8:1-25] --"And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking." --(Mark 8:24) - 
--How is your natural eyesight? Do you have 20/20 vision? Many of us depend on eyeglasses to correct our vision. Some have eye surgery to improve their vision without glasses. Others wear contact lenses. By whatever means we have it, good eyesight is a blessing. My father lost his vision in one eye through glaucoma.
Much more important is our spiritual eyesight. In today's Bible reading Jesus asked the disciples, "Having eyes, see ye not?'...and do ye not remember?" All people's spiritual vision is poor by nature. We can't tell the difference between "people" and "trees," as in today's key verse. Some things that almost everyone saw as wrong in the past, many people today can't see anything wrong with. We need to be "transformed by the renewing of [our] mind" so that we may accurately discern the will of God (Romans 12:2). Once we have new life in Christ and our vision is restored, we are subject to becoming more like Jesus, as we keep our eyes on the Cross. There's no need to go around unable to see things clearly. Like the man in today's Bible Reading, Jesus will touch us again and completely restore our spiritual eyesight if we ask Him in true faith. He is able to cure all manner of vision problems. Let us not be satisfied with anything less than 20/20 Spiritual Vision as we travel our pilgrimage toward the Celestial City with Jesus our Lord and Savior. --"Beside Still Waters"/PEY~--"I Will Rise"// Chris Tomlin (lyrics with pictures) // < https://youtu.be/MZO7mF0p88U> ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
