里歐在四個月大的時候，仍然無法清楚看見父母的模樣。他生來就患有罕見疾病，導致視力模糊。對他來說，就像活在濃霧中一般。不過，後來眼科醫師為他配了一副特製的眼鏡。

里歐的爸爸發布了一段影片，記錄里歐的媽媽第一次為里歐戴上新眼鏡時的情景。我們看到里歐的眼睛慢慢聚焦，當他第一次清楚看見媽媽的模樣時，臉上綻放出燦爛的笑容。在那寶貴的一刻，里歐可以清清楚楚地看見了！

使徒約翰記述一段耶穌與門徒的對話。腓力請求耶穌說：「將父顯給我們看」（約翰福音14章8節）。雖然門徒與耶穌相處了一段時間，但他們還是不認識這位耶穌到底是誰。耶穌答道：「我在父裡面，父在我裡面，你不信嗎？」（10節）在說這些話之前，耶穌說：「我就是道路、真理、生命」（6節），這是耶穌七個「我是」宣告中的第六個。祂要我們透過這些「我是」的鏡片看見祂真實的身分──祂就是上帝。

其實我們很像當時的門徒。在艱難的時刻，我們苦苦掙扎，以致視力模糊，看不見上帝已成就、能成就的事。當里歐戴上特製的眼鏡後，就能清楚看見他的父母，或許我們也需要戴上屬天的眼鏡，才能清楚看見耶穌的真實身分。

At four months old, Leo had never seen his parents. He’d been born with a rare condition that left his vision blurred. For him, it was like living in dense fog. But then eye doctors fit him with a special set of glasses.

Leo’s father posted the video of Mom placing the new glasses over his eyes for the first time. We watch as Leo’s eyes slowly focus. A smile spreads wide across his face as he truly sees his mom for the first time. Priceless. In that moment, little Leo could see clearly.

John reports a conversation Jesus had with His disciples. Philip asked Him, “Show us the Father” (John 14:8). Even after all this time together, Jesus’ disciples couldn’t recognize who was right in front of them. He replied, “Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?” (v. 10). Earlier Jesus had said, “I am the way and the truth and the life” (v. 6). This is the sixth of Jesus’ seven “I am” statements. He’s telling us to look through these “I am” lenses and see who He truly is—God Himself.

We’re a lot like the disciples. In difficult times, we struggle and develop blurred vision. We fail to focus on what God has done and can do. When little Leo put on the special glasses, he could see his parents clearly. Perhaps we need to put on our God-glasses so we can clearly see who Jesus really is.
