“We  remain preoccupied with many little things, our Lord walks with us on the road and keeps explaining the Scriptures to us. Thus there are many rays of hope casting their light on our way through life. “ Henri Nouwen 

On The Road to Emmaus:  Only one of the four gospel writers  included this story. It is a story that reveals to us not only something about who we are, but how Jesus opens our eyes to see Him for who He is and about how we can come to know Him.

The journey to Emmaus is both a literal and a spiritual journey. Luke 24:13-35

Years ago, I did a painting of on The Road to Emmaus.  A lady in Dallas, Tx, bought it and gifted it to Oral Roberts University.  On the road to Emmaus is very meaningful to me because of Jesus walking with these two doubtful/questioning, men.  He listened to their woes.  He did not condemn them for their doubts,  but opened their eyes to who He was.  Often times, I find myself singing the lyrics of a song “He Walks With Me“ -(“And he walks with me and he talks with me – And he tells me I am his own -And the joy we share as we tarry there -None other has ever known”. )  He walks, talks, and tells me I am is own – I need His love and guidance in my life as I walk on my way to Emmaus.

Crown Jesus as Lord of your life. Commit to surrendering everything to him today. Hand over control of your plans, relationships, finances, and emotions to the one who will guide you daily into the abundant life he died to give you.

Happy Resurrection Day
