Blindness

20140331_010716

I usually don’t call myself blind, until I have to go searching for my glasses. -3.25 and -3.50, my vision is not that bad compared to some of my friends but I can hardly see anything without my glasses. I realized that more when it took me around 15 minutes to search for my glasses. However, even if you had perfect 20/20 vision, how much can you see? How far can you see?

Right after I found my glasses, I was thinking to myself about my limited vision. However, God Almighty can see anything, the Holy Spirit is present everywhere in the world he and he can see everywhere, even inside you (Psalm 139). Moreover, He can do anything He wishes to.

Now if this was a person on earth, what do you think he would do? He can rob all your money, mess around with your life, make you his slave, mess around with your life. Now don’t worry, my brothers and sisters because our God is nothing like that. Although our sole purpose of our lives is to bring Glory to His name (Isaiah 43:7), He is a good God and He loves us. He is a fair God too and cannot tolerate any sin (wrongdoings) in our lives and every wrongdoing we commit is subject to punishment and eternal damnation. However, He loves us so much that keeping His fairness, God the Father sent His Son Jesus to die for our sins so that we do not need to suffer eternal damnation as that has been already taken care of. What more can you ask for?

Looking back at myself on a note I posted 2 years ago during Christmas, I see that I am not as blind as before. Through the journey God is leading me through, I can see more and more with my growing faith and cultivated heart through Scripture, Prayer and Worship. If you open your eyes and heart to God, He will provide you with more and more to see and admire in awe.

Therefore, I challenge you brothers and sisters to look into yourself. What can you see? How much can you see? And what are things that you could see but probably missed out on?
