Jesus meets the blind beggar by Mark Lee

// Passages:
As he approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside
begging. When he heard a crowd going by, he asked what was
happening. They told him, ‘Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.’ Then
he shouted, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!’ Those who
were in front sternly ordered him to be quiet; but he shouted
even more loudly, ‘Son of David, have mercy on me!’ Jesus stood
still and ordered the man to be brought to him; and when he
came near, he asked him, ‘What do you want me to do for you?’
He said, ‘Lord, let me see again.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Receive your
sight; your faith has saved you.’ Immediately he regained his sight
and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they
saw it, praised God.
(Luke 18: 35 - 43)

// Reflection:
1) What is the change you desire?
2) What is the change God desires for you?
3) What new sight does God want to give you?
