Looking at Life Through God's Eyes
We are often guilty of misjudging others and basing our decisions on outward appearances. This gives us a very limited perspective on life - particularly compared to the way God sees things. But when we look through the lense of scripture, we are in essence looking at the world through God's glasses. 1 Samuel 16:7 shows us how God taught Samuel how to see things through His eyes rather than his own so that he could understand his world more accurately. This verse gives us two perspectives that will bring our world into better focus: 1) learn to look at problems through God's eyes, and 2) learn to look at people through God's eyes. In light of life's trials and challenges, we must step out in faith knowing that God is sovereighnly working behind the scenes and will direct us and protect us. Every problem we face is a divine opportunity to trust the Lord!

The Vindication of Jesus, Part 2 - Jesus and Two Disciples
Luke 24:13-35 Luke's story of the women and the empty tomb is followed by an actual appearance of the risen Jesus. As he walks and talks, he exposes the faulty Messianic theology of two of his followers, and then - using the Old Testament - demonstrates that the plan of redemption, which called for his sacrificial death, was clearly spelled out in the writings of Moses and the prophets. Through the Scriptures, eyes are opened to the reality of Jesus as Savior and Lord, and hearts are motivated to partner with him as stewards of the story.
