Let the Blindman see

 Gospel text (Mk 8:22-26): When Jesus and his disciples arrived at Bethsaida, people brought to him a blind man and begged Jesus 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 the man and asked, “Do you see anything?” Looking up the man replied, “I see people looking like trees and walking.” Then he laid hands on the man’s 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.”

Reflection:

In this Gospel, Jesus again perform a miracle by letting the blindman see. It is so difficult for a man to see without any medical intervention, especially during the time of Jesus. During their time technologies are not yet in the vocabulary of mankind and yet He let the blindman see by just touching the eyes. This really implicates that Jesus can perform miracle as long as we ask Him to, and have a strong faith in God. Never worry of all your problems. Let God perform miracle by believing in Jesus strongly.
