Blessed

 "Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I say to you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it.” Luke 10:23-24




I always marvel at how much knowledge, entertainment and news are at our fingertips if we have a computer or a phone with an internet connection. The first computers were huge, some occupying 1,800 square feet, consisted of about 750,000 parts, with vacuum tubes that weighed almost 50 tons. The first hard disk drive was the size of a cupboard! And now, my phone has more power than those monster computers powered by steam!!!


Before, news had to carried by people on horseback. Now, a glance at my twitter feed can bring me news faster than CNN! What an amazing world we have!


But are we just as amazed at how awesome it is, that the Messiah that "kings and prophets" longed and waited for, is here with us today? That we can actually have a relationship with Him? We can talk to Him. We can read His words, we can know His story. 


Is it not that we often take for granted that we can actually worship and fellowship with other believers without fear of getting caught, stoned, burned at the stake, or carted off to be killed by animals in the middle of an arena like the Hunger Games? The Jews are still waiting for their Messiah. 


Have we "found" Him for ourselves?
