Facing Truth

Being faced with the truth is not an easy swallow. In John ch9, Jesus heals a man born blind. It is an interesting conversation to read for sure. But notice the man's words in v30-33. He is throwing the truth of God at the most learned men of the time. He is a simple blind beggar. His take on God not listening to sinners, rather only to those who worship Him gives credibility to Jesus. Not that Jesus needs that. Go deeper and notice the Blind see and believe, but the ones not blind reject. Can we see today? God will listen because of our faith in Jesus. But are we asking in worship of God, or worship of self. The blind man didn't ask to see, but God knew what he needed. We should be asking God to help us see too! He has wonderful things in store for those who ask.
