and had received sight, until

Not saying anything about yesterday's missing -- sometimes it's overwhelming, and while you know He's there, you don't have the time to focus on what He's saying. Which is the ultimate problem of the Christian life, really.

Didn't think there'd be a connection to thoughts today, but well done.

Elisha does something amazing in 2Kings6 -- he reveals the true nature of all things to his servant. Eph6 touches on a similar deal, that in existence right now all around are things you cannot, you cannot see. But they are there. And what all need to do is pray for open eyes.

Never mused on the phrase until the Elisha episode, but it's a new perspective on spiritual blindness. There are different levels here. You have the dull end, the hardened heart. But then you have the regular end, which is Christians today not understanding, or too busy to see the greater forces of the air around all things.

The nature of spiritual maturity, then, is simply the process by which you see more of the world He'd really have you see.
