Bible Verse Reflection
Jesus forgiven an individual who was blind and then demonstrated His authority to forgive him by treating him. As significant and exciting as the healing was, the most important aspect was the response of those who witnessed it. They exulted in praise of God in a state of amazement and awe. They realized the fact that Jesus was a minister as God’s presence.
If we can comprehend the person Jesus is and what He has done to us and continues to provide for us, we do the exact way today — we give thanks with a sense of awe and reverence.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I praise your name and am grateful for the mercy you lavishly shower over me. Teach me to have a heart to praise You always in my life whatever the circumstances. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
