Well he can keep his baby shampoo, I found out Fells Napatha works a whole lot better, the burning is down some, but the blur continues, I’ve always had blurred and burning in the left eye since the othomologist put in the WRONG value lens when he did the cataract surgery 13 years ago. And they can’t remove it to replace it. My second on this last year was a whole lot better and on the money site wise, just wish they could have done something with the astigmatisn. It limits where I see as I have no line trifocals.

Eyes Of Love
October 31, 2013

Many people who come to Marc Salem’s stage shows think he can read minds. But he makes no such claim, saying he is not a psychic or magician, but a close observer of people. He told writer Jennifer Mulson, “We live in a world that’s mostly invisible to us because we’re not paying attention to things . . . . I’m very sensitive to what people give off” (The Gazette, Colorado Springs).

It’s interesting to note what Jesus saw as He met people. His encounter with a wealthy young man seeking eternal life is recorded in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Mark includes this telling detail, “Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him” (Mark 10:21). Some people may have seen this young man as an arrogant person (vv.19-20) while others might have envied his wealth, but Jesus looked at him with love.

We often focus on the man’s sad departure and apparent unwillingness to give up his riches and follow Jesus (v.22). When the disciples wondered aloud about the difficulty of a rich man entering the kingdom of God (v.26), “Jesus looked at them and said, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible’” (v.27).

Today, Jesus sees us through eyes of love and invites us to follow Him.

Down from His splendor in glory He came,
Into a world of woe;
Took on Himself all my guilt and my shame,
Why should He love me so? —Roth

God has both an all-seeing eye and all-forgiving heart.

Read: Mark 10:17-27

Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him. —Mark 10:21

Bible in a Year:
Jeremiah 22-23; Titus 1

Thank you for yesterday's Opening, Meg.
Sorry I was AWOL.
Marissa had an early appt to get a flu shot;
I had a dentist appt, 20 miles away.

After the dentist, I went to the title company to sign papers.
Finally selling my BIL's 20 acres;
then we can close the probate.
He died 16 months ago and this past year has been very stressful.

Happy Halloween!!
