Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “My teacher, let me see again.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way. – Mark 10:51-52
Reflection
Eyesight is precious. Now that summer is almost here, I guard it from the strong sun with the right kind of “sunnies”. Insight is just as precious, especially when I receive it in reflection and prayer.
Response
Making requests responsibly means that, before I ask, I understand what I really want Jesus to do for me today.
Action
No matter what answer I am given, I will continue to follow Jesus along the way.
