Parallels

When I started looking into having Superlasik eye surgery, I couldn’t help but see parallels of man made eye correction (wearing glasses or contacts) versus “Light” correction (Superlasik), and man made religion versus a relationship with Christ.

Wearing glasses or contacts is a temporary solution that has a person continually doing maintenance in order to see better but never perfectly clear. Just as “religion” has people doing things to earn favor to a god or even thinking to God, but never giving perfect peace.

Where the Superlasik surgery uses light (in the form of a laser) to permanently reform the eyes to clearly see things around us, just as the true “Light” Jesus permanently reforms us into children of God.

I thought the parallels were interesting so I thought I’d share them with you. Thanks for reading, and remember to serve where God has you.
