What if Jesus is closer than you think—but you simply don’t recognize Him? Through the story of the road to Emmaus (Luke 24) and Lydia’s transformation (Acts 16), we explore how true faith begins when God opens us from within. Sometimes we miss Jesus in the ordinary moments. Sometimes we struggle to understand Scripture. Sometimes our hearts feel distant or distracted. But when God opens our eyes, we begin to see His presence. When He opens our minds, His Word comes alive. And when He opens our hearts, we respond with faith and love. 🙏 Let this be your prayer today: “Lord, open my eyes, my mind, and my heart.”
