Remarkable Part 32: Steps Toward Home (Mark 8:22-26)

Imagine seeing again for the first time after having lived with extended blindness. Imagine Jesus taking you by the hand, leading you out of town, healing your eyes, and then sending you on your way toward home, able to see and walk with clear vision. For the blind man in Bethsaida, this is what really happened. What a day! His steps toward home didn't begin with his healing though; they began earlier when Jesus took him by the hand. When Jesus reaches for your hand, what will your response be? God's invitation is to trust Jesus with permission to lead you, permission to access your inability, and to trust him with his process of restoration in our lives. Jesus may just open your eyes in ways you didn't even realize you were blind!
