The works of God displayed

John 9

When Jesus was asked why a man had been blind from birth, He answered , “That the works of God might be displayed.” In other words, this man’s physical condition was a healing opportunity waiting to be performed by Jesus.

We come in contact with healing opportunities EVERY DAY. Each need we become aware of is a chance for God’s power to be displayed. When we casually acknowledge the need and do nothing about it, we are vacating a chance for a miracle. All we need to do is ask, “May I pray for you?”

Yesterday, i hired two day laborers to help us lay a flagstone pathway in our backyard. The “broker” was a man named Louie. He was needy, living out of a car with a blue tarp covering a door. It was pitiful. I took advantage and asked, “May I pray for you.” Being a good Catholic, he assumed a reverent pose and began crossing his heart. Among his needs, he wants a small camper to live in. I prayed in Jesus’ name and I’m waiting on God to answer.

If you know of a free camper for Louie, please let me know. A miracle is on the way.
