Meditations from Zion

Luke 18:35
As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening.

Immediately prior to Jesus and the disciples meeting the blind man on the road, Jesus had just explained in detail what would be happening to him (mocked, insulted, spat upon, flogged & killed)… and they didn’t understand any of it. They were blinded to the truth.

When they reach the blind man in the road, he asks who it is and then he asks for mercy from Jesus. He asked for his sight and he received it.

If we are blinded … it is important to ask for help. To ask for revelation. To ask to to see. There is much we don’t understand about our world and our lives. Sometimes, the answer lies in the simplicity of asking for God to remove the veil from our eyes.

Show me truth today Lord.
