16But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. 17For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it. (Matthew 13:16-17)
Thoughts: Jesus only ministered on earth to the people for about three years- a very short time. The eyes that saw the miracles and the ears that heard his teachings are blessed. But it is even more blessed when the eyes that saw believed what they saw; and the ears that heard believed what they hear. Even today, what counts is not seeing God work, but believing in the God who does the work.
Prayer: Lord, bless my eyes and ears that they not only see and hear, but they allow me to respond to you.
