Are we really blind or are we just closing our eyes?

Are we really blind or are we just closing our eyes?

It can be difficult to discern whether we are truly blind to something or simply avoiding an uncomfortable truth. Some signs that we are closing our eyes to difficult truths include resistance, avoidance, and fear.

On the other hand, if we are open to new ideas and perspectives, engage in difficult conversations, and confront our biases, we may be working to remove our blindness.

The spirit that emerges from authentic dialogue may parallel the transcendent power that can heal our blindness.

Mark 8:22-26. “Do you see anything?”
