| "I came to Mountain
Top Emmaus not knowing what to expect.", she said in a quivering voice
with tears welling up. "I saw Jesus!"
"I came to this Walk to stop
my wife's nagging.", he confessed. "I have walked with my Lord!"
Certainly one of the more
frequent prayers for the participants in a Mountain Top Walk to Emmaus®
is that they will encounter Jesus Christ in a new and life changing way.
There are hundreds of personal witnesses that this prayer is often answered.
Is this a miracle? Yes, I believe so.
What has happened?
I believe the Holy Spirit
has opened the spiritual eye to help the individual see Jesus.
A woman saw Jesus in a person
at her table who had been a stranger two days earlier; who she now called
her sister.
A man experienced Jesus in
a much needed back rub.
A lady felt the forgiving
touch of Jesus during a communion service.
A man saw the face of Jesus
glowing in the faces of friends who had travelled hundreds of miles to
just see him.
A woman's wall of resistance
crumbled when she experienced Jesus in a meal she knew kitchen Christians
had specially made to meet her particular dietary needs.
A man could see Jesus in the
feeble handwriting of his dying father.
A person felt the presence
of Jesus after learning that his wife had been praying for him as he slept.
A lady experienced the love
of Christ in a small gift a stranger handmade just for her.
A man heard the voice of Jesus
in a song.
The love of Christ was experienced
by a man through a letter he read sent from the other side of the world.
The question is not where
but, rather, how does someone look for Jesus? Those who look with
their physical eyes will only see physical things. The glimpses of Jesus
are discerned by spiritual eyes!
Look at the picture below.
Scary, huh? |
