Seeing Blindly

G’day mates! Just trying to perfect me down under accent, hey?. Pretty good, huh? My problem is though, I wrote the words with an American accent. I know, I know. Stick to blogging, right? Yeah. I been meaning to get my sense of humor hammered, but you know how it is. Excuses excuses. Time to write on.

Not being able to see is very devastating. I’ve never experienced real blindness, but I have walked around a while in the house with my eyes closed. I’d just like to say, I couldn’t see not one obstacle, or person, or anything dangerous. I had to move by feel, counting on my hands and feet to be my eyesight.

But now, let me throw in a “What If” atchya. What if I could see, but couldn’t see danger? Would you say then that I had a kind of blindness?

Whoa blogger! What do you mean by “what if you couldn’t see danger?” Now that’s a great question! I was hoping somebody reading this post might want to know just what in the name of Sam Hill I was talking about!

But first, let me just go and see why my neighbor’s barking dog seems to be outside losing its mind. Just kidding. Seriously though, what I mean is, take for instance, if I were walking in the park and there were a venomous snake on the trail. What if I saw the snake, but did not recognize the snake as being a threat to me. Or, even better still! If I saw an angry person running towards me waving a stick, but I didn’t see that what I was looking at was an instant hospital vacation. Wouldn’t you agree that I would have a kind of blindness?

Blindness, by definition, means a state of sightlessness. That’s what being spiritually blind is. Not being able to see evil for what it is, or good as not evil. Confusing, huh?

It was for me too! I had to go and see a specialist to get some spiritual understanding! Nope. Not an ophthalmologist or an eye surgeon. Because my human eyes weren’t the problem. I needed to be able to see spiritual truth. I had to be able to see so well that I could see what was a threat to my body and my soul, and what wasn’t. So I… You guessed it! I made an appointment to see the Son of God!

When I got down on my knees and asked Him to accept me as one of His loyal and dedicated patients, He accepted me, gave me spiritual sight, and paid my bill! Then he put me on the Jesus healthcare plan for eternal life.

Imagine what it really means to be spiritually blind. -And not being able to see that when you’re doing something wrong it isn’t any kind of right, or not being able to see why getting into heaven is so important. …Or see what it will cost eternally if we run out of time before we sign up for Jesus’s healthcare plan for eternal life.

I was spiritually blind, but now I see! Thanks to my accepting the Jesus plan, I’m able to see what’s good or evil just fine now. Call now, and get enrolled! His prayer line is open 24/7.

God bless you. And thanks for reading!
