And Saul got up from the ground, and though his eyes were open, he could see nothing; and leading him by the hand, they brought him into Damascus. And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank. Acts 9:8-9
Sometimes our empirical senses can be our worse enemy. We are led by seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, and smelling. Can our God given senses lead us in the wrong way? Saul was charging to Damascus to do what he had perceived as God's work. When his senses were altered for three days, his thinking really changed. Saul saw things differently, and in three days he was ready to listen, change, and forge a complete different mission. Let's all push the world away for a little while, and in silence perhaps we will see and hear more from God than ever. Ready, set, stop. Now go.
