Open Your Eyes
When it feels like the world is unraveling, Jesus hears our fear and uncertainty, and urges: do not be overwhelmed by the darkness, but witness to the light that shines in the darkness. Open your eyes to the suffering, fear, and pain around you, even if it is not your own, and do not turn away. Open your eyes to see God’s will for the world, see that the way things are is not the way things are meant to be, but see also God’s power for healing, still at work in our world.
