Too familiar???

 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But it will be more bearable in the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades.  “The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”(Luke 10:13-16 ESV)
Jesus here rebuked those cities which had the most exposure to Him, His message, and His power, yet failed to respond and receive Him.  How many of us have, over and over again, heard His Good News, seen His hand at work, and grown so unresponsive?  Do you see the awesome truth and glory of Jesus? Or have you let them become bland?
