A Message for You Restoring Spiritual Sight The entrance of Your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. "-Psalm 119:130    A world in darkness needs the light of Jesus. Sanduk Ruit is a Nepalese doctor who has used his scalpel, microscope, and simplified cataract surgery technique to give sight to almost 70,000 people over the past 23 years. The poorest patients who visit his nonprofit eye center in Katmandu pay with just their gratitude. Our Lord Jesus Christ healed many of physical blindness during His time on earth. But of greater concern to Him were the spiritually blind. Many of the religious authorities who investigated the healing of the blind man refused to believe that Jesus was not a sinner (John 9:13 -34). This caused Jesus to say, "For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind" (v.39). The apostle Paul wrote of this spiritual blindness when he said, "If our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them" (2 Cor. 4:3-4). The psalmist said, "The entrance of Your words gives light" (Ps. 119:130). God"s Word is what will open our eyes and cure spiritual blindness.  - C. P. Hia Come to the Light, "tis shining for thee! Sweetly the Light has dawned upon me; Once I was blind, but now I can see"- The Light of the world is Jesus. "-Bliss

A Message for You Is He Enough? Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. "-Acts 3:6    Our greatest riches are the riches we have in Christ. Is Jesus enough? That"s a question many Christians need to ask themselves. They have abundant material possessions. But do these believers depend on Jesus? Or on their stuff? While having wealth is not condemned in Scripture as long as priorities are in order and the needs of others are addressed, those of us with relative wealth must remind ourselves that Jesus"-not riches"-sustains us. The apostle Peter helps us with this in the story of the lame man begging at the temple gate in Jerusalem . This man asked Peter for money, but Peter replied, "Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk" (Acts 3:6). The man lying at the gate thought the answer to his problems that day was money, but Peter showed him that the answer was Jesus. And He still is. I read about a group of Chinese Christians who have much to teach us as they seek to spread the gospel in their homeland and beyond. These believers say, "We can"t afford any big programs or fancy gospel presentations. All we have to give people is Jesus." Jesus is enough for our brothers and sisters in China . He is enough for the poor. Is He enough for you?  - Dave Branon You may have much gold and grandeur, Yet by God be reckoned poor; He alone has riches truly Who has Christ, though nothing more. "-Anon.
