Seeing and sharing the things of God
September 5, 2011
For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints...
Ephesians 1:15-18
For 51 years, Bob Edens was blind. His world was full of constant darkness and for 5 decades he had never seen the light of day. But one day, a miraculous surgery was performed and for the very first time in his life, he saw.
It’s interesting some of the things that Bob Eden said. For example, he made observations like, “I would have never dreamed that yellow is so yellow." And he also made remarks like, “It’s amazing to see a jet plane flying across the sky leaving a vapor trail!”
But one of the most profound things Bob said was, “For those of you who’ve always seen, you'll never know how wonderful it is.” And really, that's the same idea that Paul is talking about in today's passage.
Thanks to the gift of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers, you can know the things of God because the eyes of your heart have been enlightened. But there are still people around you every day who are blind to that reality. So as you live your life, give others a glimpse of the things of God in your life and pray for Him to open their eyes!
YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN THE AMAZING GIFT OF BEING ABLE TO SEE THE THINGS OF GOD. SO LIVE YOUR LIFE TO SHARE THAT REALITY WITH THOSE WALKING IN DARKNESS.

Tap into your only true source of power!
Dear Friend,
When life gets busy, it’s easy to miss your daily time with the Lord. Yet, what you think will save you time actually ends up sapping you of the power you need!
That’s why I want to send you a copy of my popular 365-day devotional book called A Daily Encounter with God.This powerful tool contains a Bible-focused reading for each day that will help you plug into Jesus Christ—your only true source of power.
Along with the devotional, I’d like to send you a copy of my I Am Second story on CD. It’s my prayer that my story will be of encouragement to you or someone you know!
Both of these resources are my gifts to bless you when you give an online donation today. So thank you for giving to help PowerPoint reach people with the Good News of Jesus ’til the whole world hears.
Jack Graham
