Luke 18:41-43
41 "What do you want me to do for you?" He said, "Lord, let me recover my sight." 42 And Jesus said to him, "Recover your sight; your faith has made you well." 43 And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
Jesus didn’t just come to destroy Rome, He came to destroy death. When people needed to eat, Jesus miraculously fed 5,000 people full to bursting and gave them Himself as the bread of life. When the blind man asked for sight, he opened His eyes and his sight was filled with the face of God. When we say God is good, I don’t think we understand just how good He is.
God hasn’t just promised Heaven, He’s proved and hinted at it 1,000 ways in Scripture. Your hope for today rises or falls on your trust in God’s goodness. Your obedience when it’s hard hinges on God being better than temptation. He has a treasure trove of joy ready for you. Open your eyes on His face.
Prayer prompt: Lord, teach me to turn my eyes upon Jesus.
