"The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness." (Luke 11:34)

The amount of light received and distributed to the body depends on the power and accuracy of the eye that receives it. A diseased eye will prevent the access of light and the darkness becomes profound to those who are accustomed to the light.

As always, our Lord's words have their spiritual application. A healthy, ready, unprejudiced spiritual eye is important because it receives and imparts light to the soul. If the spiritual eye is diseased, the soul will be full of darkness.

Let us have due appreciation for our Lord's words by establishing the right attitudes so that we can receive spiritual light and strength continually.
