Scripture
“Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging. And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
So Jesus answered and said to him, “What do you want Me to do for you?” The blind man said to Him, “Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.”
Mark 10:46-47, 51-52 NKJV
Pray
I give You all of the glory Father. In Jesus’ name I give thanks, knowing that You have already resolved my issues and answered my calls. Amen.
Reflection
The blind man’s faith was all that was needed for Jesus to heal him and make him whole. It wasn’t his words, it was his conviction and energy that declared a belief in Jesus and his teachings. Work at walking the walk not just talking the talk. Because actions do speak much louder than words.
