Eyes to See - ID and a bat

This video is pretty amazing. Well, at least somewhat amazing. The thing that made me think more deeply about it is the last comment that the commentator says, "That would never happen in a hundred years." It made me think about the odds of a bat standing on end unintentionally, like this one. Even the average person sees the unlikeliness of such an event. For this event to repeat it would take 100 years to do so. That's what I call eyes that don't see. People look at such an event and sees the rarity of it. It is so amazing that it causes some to take a video clip of it and put it on the internet for all to see. However, when the very same concept is presented to point people toward intelligent design it is given the cold shoulder. Why? A few are given eyes to see. It reminds me of the Israelites (Deut 29:4). God had worked mightily among them and even given them miracles that we haven't been privy to see. Although, they did not truly see. So what is the application of all this? Use your eyes to see and your ears to hear; not just the earthly things, but the spiritual realities that surround us. Use the everyday to point to eternity. Talk about LOST and HEROES and whatever else comes up, but be an opportunist. Show those things that people are interested in for what they truly are: signposts to spiritual realities. (Look for a future post on Jesus as an opportunist.)
