Open My Eyes, Lord

“Jesus! Have mercy on me!” The blind beggar cried out these words to Jesus over two thousand years ago. And what did Jesus do? He healed the beggar’s blindness!
We may not all be physically blind, but we all are born spiritually blind. God does not want us to be in this state, and he offers to us a solution: grace, mercy, and salvation that will open our eyes to the truth of the world and ourselves. We cannot be healed from our “blindness” without the loving touch of Jesus. He longs to put His hand on our “eyes” and say, “Your faith has made you well.” He cannot do this, though, unless you are willing to surrender to Him.
As the beautiful song, “Amazing Grace” says, “I once was lost, but now I’m found. Was blind, but now I see.”
Are you willing to cry out, “Jesus! Have mercy on me”?
