| Jesus healing blind Bartimaeus, Johann Heinrich Stöver, 1861, Erbach, Germany. [GNU Free/CC] |
As Jesus was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a sizable crowd,
Bartimaeus, a blind man, the son of Timaeus,
sat by the roadside begging.
On hearing that it was Jesus of Nazareth,
he began to cry out and say,
"Jesus, son of David, have pity on me."
And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent.
But he kept calling out all the more,
"Son of David, have pity on me."
Jesus stopped and said, "Call him."
So they called the blind man, saying to him,
"Take courage; get up, Jesus is calling you."
He threw aside his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
Jesus said to him in reply, "What do you want me to do for you?"
The blind man replied to him, "Master, I want to see."
Jesus told him, "Go your way; your faith has saved you."
Immediately he received his sight
and followed him on the way.

Please pray for a breakthrough in my writing, so that I might honor God with this gift. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, Jan Christiansen. I'm praying with you for that writing breakthrough. Don't get discouraged or give up! It took be a long time to find the right story and the right editor. It was in God's time, not mine. Trust it will all come together for you too! I know it will!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Debby. I really appreciate your words of encouragement and your prayers. God bless!
DeleteI've always loved this story and the raw faith that was rewarded. Praying for your breakthrough Jan, keep at it with the faith of Bartimaeus.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Cate. I'm moving ahead in faith by doing NaNoWriMo in November. My writing has been stuck for quite a while, but it's time to get back to it. Your prayers are such a blessing to me.
DeletePlease pray for my family as my brother is going through medical procedures to fight 1st stage cancer and my niece is studying to be a respiratory therapist.
ReplyDeleteLynne, I prayed for your brother and niece this morning. God's got this!

DeleteYou and your family are always in my prayers, Lynne!
DeleteHello everyone, two month ago my husband left me and abandoned our kids with me without saying a word to me, no phone calls, no texts and when i text him he don't reply until this very faithful day i was reading a blog post about single moms and how they do cope, i was scrolling through the comment section when i came across someone's comment who testified about the great work of this man, i quickly copied his email address and contacted him straight and explained to him all i was passing through and he said my daughter you don't have to worry anymore you have come to the right place for help. He told me what i needed to do which i did without hesitation. Behold the next morning i heard a knock on the door only for me to find out it's my husband who has left me for 2 months on his kneels crying and apologizing for all the pains he has caused me. I felts as if i was dreaming but i soon realized that i wasn't, it was my husband, he came back to me. Thank you so much Lord spiritual. Am forever grateful.. I have promise to announce this to the world in appreciation for your good gesture. if you are facing similar challenges in your marriage do not hesitate to reach him..
