—Matthew 20:29-34
by: Gabrielle Watt.
These blind men not only ignored those who tried to silence them, they got even louder and more fervent. They were in a place of desperation and showed amazing faith in a man they had never even seen. Then, Jesus asked a question to which He fully knew the answer. He asked because He wanted to hear the answer from them. God also wants to hear from us, as is said throughout both the Old and New Testaments (i.e. Psalm 37:4; Matthew 21:22; James 4:3; etc.). Because of their willingness to ask and also their faith, Jesus showed mercy and gave the men sight. What haven’t you asked God for?
