Can you see me now?

It is true! The Lord has risen ... Then the two told what had happened - and how Jesus was recognized by them when He broke the bread. (Luke 24:34-35)


You think you know all there is to know about the Gospels. Then something comes along to open your eyes to a brand new angle of discovery.

The road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13). A pair of men walking along discussing the death and disappearance of Jesus' body. Jesus Himself joins them but they do not recognize His face nor His voice. (v.16) It is only when He breaks the bread and gives thanks that their eyes are opened (v.31). It's His behavior that caused them to remember Him.

Maybe you're getting older, grayer, rounder ... wrinklier. Maybe your voice is softer or raspier. But your actions speak volumes. What you do, how you make people feel is making a lasting impression. Your character is what they will see and remember.

So make it a good one ...
