God loves you .

You, too, Mary, have a kind of awkward ‘praise God’ (no exclamation point) about YouTube, huh?

He saw but did not ‘see’; he sees not, and ‘sees’ so much more. This story is the blossoming of Everyman with a hard handicap – blossoming in spite of his tragic veil, and yet a veil through which to find some ‘best’ of himself. Everyman finds that best, however he learns to ‘see’, or he cannot blossom.

That this young man is merging his education with his cosmic blossoming is extraordinary – his handicap should make the accomplishment of both so difficult as to be nearly impossible. (Consider: he’s serenely painting, and yet he must ‘keep an eye on the clock’ about his next class!(?) This must say something about our brains/minds doing more than compensating about a physical malfunction, but actually, if looking to ‘see’ toward his best, spurring the child of God to more than before.

Perhaps, of ‘plucking our eyes’ that we do not sin with them, Christ would have us see right here in our time far more than we could see with them. If we give our will over to submission to God’s will, have we not taken our eyes out of seeing what we would see, and instead what God would have us see? Further, diminishing myself to be more Christlike, are my eyes anymore mine?

Behold, how wonderful of God, He can make the blind to see without their actually seeing! And, in this example of such wondrous achievement, how so many of us feel like examples of ‘blind’ laggards.

Remember, I love you, too .

In the Suffering of Christ, and in His hope of His Resurrection,
