“The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!” ~ Matthew 6:22-23

Two stories:

(1) So, I came home from a walk on a hot, hot day. When I came, it was so hot that my first instinct was to turn the AC to an even lower degree because the apartment was so hot.  To my surprise, the AC was at a fairly low temperature, and the apartment was actually cold. It was I who was actually hot, and so I thought the whole apartment was hot.

(2) One day a man visited his doctor because he was in excruciating pain. The doctor asked him, ‘Where does it hurt?’ The man answered, ‘All over.’ The doctor told the man to touch his shoulder. The man touched his shoulder and cried out in pain. Next, the doctor told the man to touch his forehead. The man touched his forehead and cried out in pain again. The doctor told the man to touch his knee. The man touched his knee and winced in pain. He said, ‘Doctor, everywhere I touch, I’m in pain.’ The doctor thoroughly examined the man and concluded, ‘No wonder you are in pain everywhere you touch – you have a dislocated finger!’”

Point: We often process the world through who we are. 

Sometimes we think the world is going crazy. It is not. We are.

“To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted.” ~ Titus 1:5
