A thought by Max Lucado from his book, You Are Never Alone (p. 77). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition. (Click on the book title to go to Amazon to buy the book.)
But that is not the end.
Max says, "It ends with a was-blind man worshiping Christ. Is this not the desire of Jesus for us all?"
Good, good question.
He goes on, "Apart from Christ we are blind. We cannot see our purpose. We cannot see the future. We cannot see our way out of problems and pain. We cannot see Jesus. But he sees us, from head to foot. He knows everything about us.
"When I was a fifth grader, the optometrist gave me a vision test. If God tested your spiritual vision, would you pass the test? Can you see the meaning of life? Have you caught a vision for eternity? Most of all, can you see God’s great love for you? The hand you sense on your face is his. The voice you hear is his."
He then says, "It is not his will that we grope blindly through life. He wants us to know why we are on earth and where we are going. Our vision matters to Jesus. He will do whatever it takes to help us see how to see.
And, he will, won't he?
Yes, yes!
