Are you familiar with the Road to Emmaus?  Two men traveling from Jerusalem to Emmaus, a town seven miles west were discussing the events of the last few days. In fact, it says they were discussing everything and arguing. There seem to be some disagreement over what had happened.  In this short journey someone join them, it was Jesus. They did not recognize him. It says their eyes we eventually opened to recognize Jesus. I wonder if our eyes are open or closed? Can we recognize the presence and power of Jesus or are our closed that we cannot recognize Him. How often do we talk about Him? The Apostle Paul says this,"  My goal is to know him(Jesus) and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings..."( Phil.3:10) Do we stand with Paul with the same goal?
