Open Eyes, Closed Hearts
Over the last several weeks we’ve been looking in the Gospels and, in some ways, building a biography of Jesus. Our hopes have been to encounter Him as we eavesdrop into conversations He had with various people: people that are proud, broken, marginalized, some without power or resources and others with all the respect and honor you could ask for.

Spiritual Blindness
Often our heart's affection is easily directed away from the Giver of good gifts to the gifts themselves. We make romance, money, health, work, and other gifts into an ultimate passion which displaces, or at least diminishes our affection for the Giver. So we seek Him in what feels like vain cries to deaf ears, not because we want Him, rather we want what He can give us. God has become our sugar-daddy and we try to hustle Him and use Him as currency to purchase our idols. We know only He can give it to us, so we beg Him like junkies trying to get a fix so that we can scurry off into a dark corner, away from His sight, to worship the real treasure of our hearts.

Do You See Anything?
In the healing of the blind man, Jesus teaches his disciples about their spiritual blindness. Spiritual blindness is the pervasive human problem, and it is both deep and self-destructive. But Jesus also show how he intends to heal his disciples. Our healing requires the rebuke of the cross, which first humbles us and then affirms us. By believing and living the Gospel we become free to live the upside-down dynamic of the kingdom.
