Specifically

"Jesus looked up at his followers," Luke 6:20.

And then he started to speak. So what do you do after you've been in the inner sanctum of the king of the ages? That is, after you've fallen on your face (so to speak) and been filled with shock and awe? What do you do then? Well, hmm. It sort of depends on what he does, right? Right. So, what did Jesus do to them? He looked up. At them. (Specifically, it says he raised up his eyes into his disciples.) And then he spoke a word. So, back to the question: What do you do after you've worshipped all amazed and stuff? You pay attention. We listen. You learn. We yield to his Word. We walk his Way.

As he provides opportunity for us to visit a brother or sister today, we learn from him how to lift up our eyes to each other, not down our noses. And, together, we give thanks to him who beckons us into his sky kingdom.
