Spiritual Eyes Open or Closed?

Read this in my quiet time...

33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said.

Why was Peter rambling like he did? He didn't make any sense! Three tents? He was seeing the glory of Christ, a moment of transfiguration that few eyes would see, and he chose to say those words? Well, looking a little deeper, we find that Peter was awoken, and he didn't know what to say. He was perhaps sleeping, and was groggy from sleep.

What will we miss because we are in a spiritual stupor? Too tired to engage the God of Heaven, too tired to open the Love letter written to us by him whose eyes never tire or close? God has so much to reveal to us! Jesus told his disciples to "Watch and Pray" at the garden, yet he found them--once again, asleep.

Right now, my eyes are wide open. God is doing some incredible things in my life, and in the lives of those around me. I don't want to mumble through perhaps one of the greatest moments in my life. Jesus asks me to "watch". In other words, standing, waiting, expecting for God to move! May our eyes and hearts be open and AWAKE to the movement and revelation of God in his Word, and in his church! I'm watching Lord. I'm awake. Keep me there. Help me to keep others there.
