Jesus Heals Two Blind Men

If you have been around children, you will experience their innate trust in the adult who spends time with them. The sweetness of childlike trust is that it just believes.

It’s not conditional. It’s not complicated. It’s not driven by hype.

That’s what marks the healing of these two blind men. We don’t know much about their backgrounds, but it was obvious they were desperate for a miracle. Jesus asks them a rather surprising question: “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” It’s surprising because it's rather obvious if they called out to him publicly and asked for His mercy that they believe He can heal them.

The science behind the healing of someone who is completely blind shows that it's impossible to restore sight once it’s lost, and even harder when there was never any sight before. Jesus, the One who created the whole world, would be restoring both these men to their original design with perfect 20/20 vision. He would be restoring nerves, reordering blood vessels and creating neural pathways before He opened their physical eyes.

Only God can! Only the Creator can create from nothing! Only the Maker can make a way out of nothing to begin with.

What God-sized miracle are you waiting for? What impossibility are you facing that only God can turn around? Do you have a simple childlike trust to answer the call of your creator and say, “Yes, I believe you can do this”?
