How can two followers of Christ walk with him for miles, but not recognize him until he blesses and breaks bread? And how, even as his disciples gather around their resurrected Lord, can doubt remain?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is one of the wonders of living in the world of the Spirit. We can be uncertain. We can be doubtful. Our eyes can be willfully shut, but Christ's presence never wavers. He is ahead of us, behind us, and beside us constantly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePresbyterian pastor Stephen D.
