“And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped Him” (John 9:38).
It had been quite a day for the man who was born blind. Perhaps his day started as any other day. We do not know for sure about his routine, but we know it must have been dreadfully difficult. In a wonderful way the Lord Jesus miraculously healed his blindness and gave sight to him. Everything was brand new in his line of vision. He had never seen the sky. He had never looked upon others around him. He didn’t know what his parents looked like other than what his hand could touch and his mind envision. Imagine what that was like for this man. He had never seen his surroundings until that incredible day. Now the greatest day of his life was taking place, and the religious leaders were furious. Surely in the heart of this man the greatest desire must have been for him to meet personally the One Who restored His sight. He told the religious leaders everything he knew about what had happened to him. What was their response? They cast him out (9:34) and practically threw him into the arms of the seeking Savior (9:35). He believed on the Lord and worshipped Him. It may not be quite as spectacular as it was with the man born blind, but let me ask you a question. What did the Lord do to draw you to Himself? Were you at home, at church, in a youth group, or just what were your circumstances?
For today: I am so glad that the Lord Jesus found me. Do you know Him?
