Day 43 - Chapter 8, Verses 22-26


When they arrived at Bethsaida, they brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him. He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. Putting spittle on his eyes he laid his hands on him and asked, "Do you see anything?"

Looking up he replied, "I see people looking like trees and walking." Then he laid hands on his eyes a second time and he saw clearly; his sight was restored and he could see everything distinctly.

Then he sent him home and said, "Do not even go into the village."

This healing happens in two stages. Have there been any moments in your life when you feel that God is bringing you slowly to a new place, a new realization? What was the ‘between time’ like? Can you point to how God was present at that point in your life?
