WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR IN HIM?

Do you agree that what we see mostly depends on what we are looking for? Well, we can reason together based on logistics..😜
If you're a young man or woman in love with a particular person, every other person may almost be non-existent to you until you find him/her.

Scripturally, the crippled man at the Beautiful Gate was looking at Peter and John to  beg them for something (Acts 3, 1-10). What was he looking for? Material things to support himself. But in the gospel of Luke 24, 13-35, the two disciples on the way to Emmaus saw Jesus but something prevented them from recognising him. Wow!

My dear friend(s), in these two occasions, both the crippled man and the disciples on the way to Emmaus were looking but not really seeing more other than what they wanted for themselves. Terrible! 😳😳

While the cripple man wanted some material assistance, maybe by way of money, the two disciples on the other hand wanted some sympathy for their misery and disappointment. We must learn to look beyond what we want for ourselves. If everything is about you, what about those around you?😱😱

Truly, what Jesus wants to give us is not mere silver or gold or some consolation in our disappointment, but a revelation. When Jesus is who we are looking for, we will see Him.

Now, as you go out today, I ask you again: What are you looking for in Jesus? Eat your breakfast in peace, I'm enjoying my orange juice 😜

Good morning!
