Spiritual blindess is a matter of God's healing and love towards those he provides measures of salvation for. Together we are better when any member of the body of Christ is better able to serve God in his mission for us to help him provide witness of salvation. Works offered before the almighty God of works meet for repentance are a daily joy and love for us Jesus the Christ and his Father provided. Good works from them to us. We can receive happy feelings and fruits of their holy spirit such as love, peace and joy in service of God and our neighbors.

Blindness of the eye of the soul, the mote and beam discussions of scripture can block partially to any degree our awareness of self and others, including our environment. Considered inward and outward conditions psychologically similar to anger and sadness. Sadness turned outward they say is anger.

God can and does heal us with his life giving holy spirit. When we witness of God and his ways towards our salvation we can receive a portion of his spirit. Church attendance and service is a great way to be rewarded by him.

Certain drugs can induce a similar blindness of self and surroundings. Some become unaware of their conduct among others. Some stand idly by while others suffer.

Todays times I see those conditions often where I reside. Jesus is with the sinners not the righteous. He is the good physician. It is the righteous that are required to not be idle and therefore serve God also.

Cheers,

We are not void of our own desires and works. We Christians serve good and God in mercy, kindness, charity and love.

A good Christian counselor should be learned and educated in mental, emotional, physical and spiritual illnesses and how to direct people towards healing and progress towards our lord Jesus the Christ and his ways for us. God is healing and the spirit of life. Christ is also in body unto eternal life also. Those that touched the hem of his garment were healed.

I wonder regarding social services that are government run and funded agencies and whether they can direct their people to a specific Christian church or Christianity at all as a specific religious establishment.

The constitution has the following words:


"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

That is why I hope for good Christian counselors serving the true God, helping to gather the lost sheep caught in pits and out of the darkness of false beliefs of worldly ways and earthly raising of mankind thru generations.

Cheers,

How have you been?
Challenged but full of hope and purpose. The whole household was sick. Thankfully my symptoms were super mild. But I know these challenges are sanctifying. I am happy to have done fine even though I no longer have a babysitting option available.

I will say prayers for you as always, and hope you have babysitters soon.

Feel better soon @Wynona.

You are a light to your family and friends. Each Christian adds to the light of the group in the Spirit of our caring Father God.

Cheers!

Church attendance doesnt reward us with blessings. But it helps with guidance and fellowship. Blessings come with the acts and power of our faith and persistence.
