thankfulness opens your eyes
The Emmaus disciples may have walked with Jesus on the road, and listened to him explaining scripture to them, but they only recognised Jesus as he broke bread over diner and gave thanks. (Luke 24: 30-35).
Something happens to us when we give thanks; our focus shifts away from the things weighing us down, to a heavenly perspective and eyes open to see Jesus with us.
This week, let's cultivate thankfulness right in the middle of the mundane.
