A Prayer for Wednesday, June 8, 2011

“Blind”

Lord, we are blind in any number of ways—blind to our faults, blind to our blessings, blind to our abilities, blind to our sins, blind to our forgiveness, blind to your judgment, blind to your grace—Lord, we are blind in so many ways.

We believe that you are able to heal our blindness; please help our unbelief.

Open our eyes, Lord, so that we might see what we really need to see so that we can really live.

Amen.

“As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, crying loudly, ‘Have mercy on us, Son of David!’ When he entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ They said to him, ‘Yes, Lord.’ Then he touched their eyes and said, ‘According to your faith let it be done to you.’ And their eyes were opened.” (Matthew 9:27-30a)
