"When he entered the house, the blind men approached him and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I can do this?" "Yes, Lord," they said to him." Matthew 9:28
Do we bring our own blindness to Jesus? What about our blindness to prayer, do we see prayer working for us or are we blinded by our lack of faith? Praying before Jesus and bringing our supplications before Him, He asks us the same question. "Do you believe that I can do this?" Prayer is transforming because You are asking God to intervene. Prayer is powerful when we have child like faith and it is so easy to do. Costs nothing than our time, can be done at any time and with faith, the blindness removed, you witness His power. Yes Lord, I hear, I see, I believe. Praise God!
"It is possible to offer frequent and fervent prayer even at the market place or strolling alone. It is possible also in your place of business, while buying or selling, or even while cooking." (Saint John Chrysostom)
Dear Lord, You know my heart this morning and You know my prayer today. I know You and Your Holy Family hears all our prayers when we call upon them. Remove the blindness to the possibilities of prayer, increase our faith by seeing You in action. I thank You Lord for handling my life through daily prayer. Prayers for my Uncle Paul, may He be resting in Your arms, watch over his family and ease their pain. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Mother of the Afflicted, pray for us.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
