According to Dale Carnegie, “One of the most tragic things about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon—instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.” As a consequence life passes us by while we are waiting for something extraordinary to happen. Consider the two despairing disciples on the road to Emmaus.
“Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him…[later] he took bread, gave thanks, broke it and began to give it to them. Then …they recognized him….”
— Luke 24:15-16; 30-31 (NIV)
Lord Jesus, give us eyes to see and a heart to sense Your near presence. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
