Open the eyes

    Matthew 20:29-34 says, “And as they went out of Jericho, a great crowd followed him. [30] 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!” [31] The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” [32] And stopping, Jesus called them and said, “What do you want me to do for you?” [33] They said to him, “Lord, let our eyes be opened.” [34] And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him.”

    Time and again Jesus showed His power while on earth. He healed the sick, lame, and blind. He cast out demons. He fed thousands with just a small amount of food. He walked on water. He raised people from the dead, and ultimately He rose Himself from the dead.

    It would be amazing to have seen these great miracles. I sometimes think it would be easier for people to believe if they could see Jesus perform these miracles once again, however most of those who saw the miracles still rejected Jesus. For most, all the evidence in the world would still not lead them to believe. For the honest, the evidence we have is all we need to know He is our savior.
