Call Him, As If Your Soul Depends On It

Good Morning!! Throughout the Gospels, someone was always crying out to Jesus, for help. Some cry aloud, others silently. Still others look long, and pray hard. One such seeker, blind Bartimaeus, continuously cried, "Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!" Can you imagine, how often he must of had thoughts of what his life would be like, if only he could see?

When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"—Mark 10:47,48 (NIV)

You can almost sense his hopes rise, as he heard what Jesus had done for others. Making the lame walk, and the blind to see. I can hear him calling now; " Jesus!",...believing that Jesus could never put off such an authentic call for help,...and because of that faith, Bartimaeus is no longer blind!

There is a name,...Greater than any other,...one that heals, comforts and saves,...that name is Jesus!!

Come by here Lord,...do not pass us by. You are our savior, be our vision,...we want to be healed. Amen.

"Once we've tasted being alive, how can we so easily go back to being dead?"
