PRAYING TO JESUS!=FOR A MIRACLE

 

PRAYING TO JESUS!=for

A MIRACLE!

 

Have you EVER PRAYED=to

Jesus for a MIRACLE?=I have

And he answered me=with

This CONTINUOUS MIRACLE

Of LIFE

 

How about you=Have you ever PRAYED

To Jesus=or the Holy Father God

For anything?

 

Today in this reading=OF LUKE

We have=the MIRACLE

Of the HEALING=of a blind man

 

”He shouted’=’Jesus=Son of David

Have pity on me’”                                                                                                                 Luke 18:38

 

This blind man=does NOT KNOW

What all the COMMOTION=is about

So he asks=THOSE WHO CAN SEE

 

WHEN=he learns=it is Jesus

THE MIRACLE WORKER=the Son of God

He CREATES=a big scene

 

The crowd=tells him=to be quiet

But THIS BLIND MAN=is

Having none of it=HE PLEADS

To the Lord=he calls out=SO LOUD

That even Jesus=hears him

 

“Jesus stopped=and ordered the man

To be brought to him=WHEN he came near=

Jesus said=’WHAT do you want me

To do for you’”                                                                                                             Luke 18:39-40

 

How about you=have you EVER

Prayed to the Lord=FOR A MIRACLE=

Has he answered=have you TOLD

The world about it?

 

I TELL=the world seemingly every day

How the Lord=RESCUED ME=from death’s door

And how he SUSTAINS ME

With this MIRACLE OF LIFE

 

PRAYING TO JESUS!=for a MIRACLE

Like the blind man?=like me?

HAS the Lord=ANSWERED YOU?

 

“So we fasted=and petitioned

Our God about this=and he

ANSWERED OUR PRAYER”                                                                                                        Ezra 8:23

 

“HEAR MY PRAYER=Lord

Listen to my cry=for mercy”                                                                                          Psalm 86:6

 

“…….these I will bring

To my holy mountain=and give them joy

In=My HOUSE OF PRAYER”                                                                                                  Isaiah 56:7

 

How is your FAITH?=how is my faith?

IS OUR FAITH=like the great faith

Of this BLIND MAN?=it takes faith

For a MIRACLE to happen

 

So we have=to ASK

Ourselves some questions=How EAGER

Are we to see Jesus?=How much do we

APPRECIATE the MIRACLE=of our very own faith?

It can CREATE=miracles for us=with Jesus

In charge=it can set us FREE

 

“Therefore I tell you=whatever

YOU ASK FOR=IN PRAYER

 

Believe that you have received it=and

It will be yours”                                                                                                                         Mark 10:24

 

“AND THE PRAYER=offered in faith

Will make the sick person=well

The Lord=will raise them up”                                                                                               James 5:15

 

That is=WHAT HAPPENED

To the blind man=he pleaded

IN PRAYER=and that is what=happened to me

All those years ago

 

How about you=WHAT MIRACLES

Have you RECEIVED=in your life

Do you have=a story to tell?

PRAYING TO JESUS!=FOR A MIRACLE

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our ever loving=MIRACLE WORKING

Holy Father God
