Open mind

Luke 24 : 45-48

All of us go through bad times. if not, then tough times. Somehow It is inevitable. The best consolation is the fact that God is in complete control. Our reactions are different to situations. Some panic, some stand the ground and some are in the air. But in all the mess, there is nothing as good as a word of comfort and wise counsel. There has been times when you and I have got it and it has really helped.

The disciples were recovering from the shock of their life. Within a span of 3-4 days they had witnessed such high volatile action and reactions. They were still not calm in their hearts and minds. So When Jesus decided to speak to His disciples for the last time on earth He gave them the wisest counsel and helped them stick to the Word of God forever.

We look for advice in all the places. There is nothing wrong in seeking one. But remember even the finest of relationships on the face of earth is conditional. Whereas the love of God is unconditional. It’s so blessed to read the Word. There is no best counsel as the Word of God. One cannot find such advices in any part of the world. Today we need eyes to see God’s work and ears to hear His voice. Let us pray that he would open our minds to understand the scriptures.
