Obedience Affects the Eye

Friday. Luke 24: 25-32.

Jesus is faithful. He still opens his Word to the eager listener. As of old the heart burns, for his brooding presence in the Book gives light and clears the meaning. To the willing mind and heart the Book opens clearly and distinctly. It is only to him who is willing to do that the life-plan is made plain.

“Light obeyed increaseth light,
Light rejected bringeth night.”

Obedience is the open door to the Book.
