Daily Walk Through the New Testament
July 3
Read Luke 7:24-50

The human eye is a marvel of human anatomy. Its ability to distinguish the millions of colors in nature or calculate the depth of a meadow is beyond comprehension. It can see up close or to the far reaches of space. But it cannot see itself. All any of us will ever see of ourselves in this life is a mere reflection in a mirror. And what we do see of ourselves we do not believe. Think of a time when you have seen yourself in a photo or heard yourself on a recording. Were you surprised? Our ability to see the faults in others is seemingly flawless, but our ability to see ourselves is certainly flawed. Ask God for the grace to see yourself as you truly are, and He will lead you to have genuine remorse for your sin.
