Shattered Sight

In light of what has been happening in the world these past couple months/years, as far as time can tell, I can't help but think that we live in a world of "shattered sight." A world that acts upon the "shattered sight." When you cannot see something clearly, it is shattered, distorted, broken. We live in a world that is broken and bruised by sin. A world where only one person can save us and His name is Jesus Christ, God's only Son. Once we accept His free gift of salvation, our sight is now complete. We no longer see through a broken glass window; we now see things clearly.

Those living in the world see themselves and others through a shattered window. Their view is distorted and the problem is that no one has told them that the window they look through is broken. So many people look through the shattered window and see no hope. No one has shown them the gospel that can fix the broken window and give them hope. Our job is to show them that gospel so now instead of seeing a shattered window they see the truth and are given hope in light of a broken world. 

Spread the news. Share His love. Give them hope. 

“If you abide in My word, 
you are My disciples indeed. 
And you shall know the truth, 
and the truth shall make you free.” 
John 8:31b-32
