were just now seeking to

Luke24 and the walk with the Lord and the Emmaus pair, what an interesting scene. Great sermon in here, I can sense it, although the outline escapes me at the moment. v16 raises the issue of prevented sight. Spiritual blindness a terrible condition. What to make of the disease when given to you? Now, v16 doesn't state what is doing the preventing: sin, ignorance, some other something from the self.

What I find wonderful is the care by which He explains Himself to the duo, and the afternoon and the dinner it takes to see through the darkness of closed eyes. Lord does that now, and it takes far more than the better part of the day to pierce through those coverings. It often takes a lifetime. Faith comes to a heart willing to listen to the explanation and make the connection between the burning heart and the reasoning of the mind.
