After my shower and breakfast, I returned to the bathroom and then I noticed it. Right above the shower knob was a sticker warning the reader that the plumbing was backwards. Instead of fixing it they just shared the unexpected status. I thought how interesting it was that the whole time I fiddled with the knob I never even noticed the sticker. I learned through experience the mistake despite someone’s attempt to warn me. Seems like we see what we look for, and miss what we don’t look for, even when the thing we don’t see is right in front of us.
From Matthew 13
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
I hope we are looking for those things that Heavenly Father wants to teach us. I’m sure I miss plenty of opportunities to learn since sometimes I have eyes but see not.
