When Jesus looked at a situation he saw it completely different than the people of his time did. At the wedding in Cana the people saw empty water jar while Jesus saw vessels for wine (2:7). While talking to a Samaritan women his disciples saw a distraction but Jesus saw the will of God revealed (4:27,32). When he looked at the crowd by the sea Jesus saw a crowd hurting while the disciples saw an impractical situation (6:8-10). For the man born blind Jesus saw and opportunity to display God's power while his disciples saw the punishment of sin (9:1-3). When he heard of Lazarus and his fatal illness his disciples saw the despair of diseases while Jesus a way to bring glory to God (10:4, 12). We need to look at situations through Jesus' like eyes.
