I Once Was Blind But Now I See

Scripture: John 9: 1-3

While He was passing by, He noticed a man [who had been] blind from birth. His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi (Teacher), who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?” Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but it was so that the works of God might be displayed and illustrated in him. 

Scripture Commentary: Jesus healed the blind.

I went blind when I was in my early thirties. My wife woke me to take our children to school. I asked her what time it was and if the curtains were closed. She replied that they were not so I asked her to take the the kids to school and then come back. When she got back, I told her I could not see.

I was taken to the doctor and then to the hospital. After a week, the doctors told my family I was blind and regaining my sight wasn’t likely. My family prayed and I saw again. I thanked the doctors and went about my life for thirty years before realizing it was God who gave me my sight back.

God is good all the time!

I tell you this to say how good Our Lord Jesus Christ is. He took a fool like me, healed me, protected me, loved me and gave me this ministry!

What can He do for you? Everything! Our God is truly a loving God who heals the sick, and protects you from harm and you don’t even know it.

How many times have you said that you were lucky? It wasn’t luck; it was Jesus Christ protecting you. Don’t wait years to thank Jesus. Thank Him every day because every day He protects you.
