Blind Eyes Opened, Royal Priesthood Revealed
What to notice today
Today's readings reveal God's power to transform the impossible into testimony. In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind, demonstrating that spiritual blindness—rejection of God's truth—is the real tragedy, while the formerly blind man becomes a bold witness to Christ's divine authority. Meanwhile, 1 Chronicles 7–9 catalogs Israel's genealogies and the restoration of temple worship, reminding us that God's covenant people are called to serve as a kingdom of priests, and Psalm 110 prophetically announces Christ's eternal priesthood and kingship.
