Two disciples walked the road to Emmaus with the risen Jesus beside them and never recognized Him. Their disappointment had narrowed their vision until a shared meal opened their eyes. Luke 24 reminds us that the presence of Jesus does not depend on our awareness of it. He still walks with us through grief, unanswered prayer and seasons when God feels hidden. Scripture teaches us to look again, and the Lord’s Table shows us grace that was there all along. Ask Him for eyes that see, and trust that you never walk the road alone.

A lawyer asks Jesus where the line is: who exactly counts as my neighbour? Jesus answers with a story. A priest and a Levite see the wounded man and walk on. A Samaritan, the outsider, crosses the road and lets what he sees change what he does. Instead of naming who qualifies, Jesus asks which man became a neighbour. The Kingdom is often hidden in something ordinary, lying beside the road we are hurrying down. We can cross that road because Christ crossed it first for us. Go and do likewise.
