Post Easter, we read the story of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35). They are disheartened by Jesus’ death but when Jesus appears to walk with them they don’t even recognize Him. It’s not until they break bread with Jesus that they see Him for who He is.
The question is, do we recognize Jesus? I’m not talking about walking the road to Emmaus over 2,000 years ago, I’m talking about everyday. Do we see Jesus? We should because when you look at anyone, regardless of who it is, you should see Jesus. Really. I’m not kidding!
This is pretty simple, just like how God intended life to be. God created each one of us, and His DNA is in all of us. That means that God’s only Son, Jesus, is in each one of us. The trick is to look past the outer and look into the inner. That is where we will see Jesus.
Try looking at others in a different way. As you walk your own Emmaus road of life, look for Jesus in others. It’s not hard. And this isn’t religious mumbo-jumbo. It’s life. As God intended. Simple.
Have an awesome rest of the week finding Jesus!
