sharp senses...

Matthew 20:29-31 And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him. And behold, there were two blind men sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” These two men had lost the sense of sight. But their ears worked very well - they heard that Jesus was passing through town. They had the spiritual sense to realize this was their golden opportunity - not to make a quick shekel, but to plead with the only one able to heal them. They persisted despite negative public opinion. They had the sensibility to recognize Christ as the Messiah, the merciful Son of God. If you are able to read this, you have sight. How well can you see who Christ is and what He is able to do in your life?
