Heal Our Land // Eyes That Heal
Description
In this powerful message, we delve into the themes of healing, compassion, and the importance of truly seeing one another. Drawing inspiration from 1 Timothy 2, we are reminded to pray for our leaders, regardless of personal feelings, as an act of faith in God's sovereignty. The role of the church in a broken nation is to turn to Jesus and embody His love and mercy, becoming agents of healing. The parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10 teaches us the significance of seeing and having compassion for others. In our technology-driven world, making eye contact has become rare, yet it is essential for genuine connection and trust. Eye contact releases oxytocin, fostering empathy and making people feel seen and understood. As followers of Jesus, we are called to extend the love and mercy we've received to others, embodying the ministry of Jesus. This week, let's focus on truly seeing the people around us, making eye contact, listening deeply, and extending compassion.
This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.
