Only when the Holy Spirit opens our eyes, is our heart opened ready to receive God’s truth and light. Only then are we released from spiritual blindness and ignorance. Unless our eyes are opened we are slow of heart.
32 They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
Luke 24:32
When we open and read Scripture, everything of God: past, present and future is before us.
21 Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.
22 Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.[a] 23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
1 Peter 1:21-23
