Universal Cure

Verse of the day: Psalm 119:18 Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from Your law.

Have you ever watched someone who is born physically bind? It is absolutely amazing how they are able to maneuver, and get around, without continually crashing into walls or furniture. That is because other organs, and senses, are heightened in order to compensate for the loss of sight. Spiritual blindness, on the other hand, is far different, and far more dangerous. We are all born spiritually blind. This blindness is the result of sin, and we all have been affected by our sin nature. We are often blind to our own sin, blind to God's truth, and sadly, oftentimes, the result of our choosing to close our eyes to truth. The only cure for spiritual blindness is Jesus. The Light of the world is the only One who can truly open our eyes. It is the work of the Holy Spirit, in us, that opens the eyes of our hearts and minds. He iluminates the Word of God so that we can see, and have greater understanding of God's Word. Only God, through Christ, can cure the universal blindness that mankind suffers. True joy, peace, happiness, and excitement, can only come from having our eyes opened by the Spirit of God. As His children, once our eyes have been opened, we must never choose to turn a blind eye to the darkness that exists all around us. We must now carry the light of Jesus to a world whose eyes have been darkened by sin, the world, and the devils. May God open our eyes, and help us to see the beauty, and freedom, we have in obediently applying, and living according to, God's Word.
