Worship into the Week-Have Mercy

 

Worship into the Week-

Mark 10:46-52

Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus

A blind man in Jericho had heard 

the stories of a man named Jesus.

Where Jesus went there 

were often large crowds of people 

who gathered around him.

They had also heard the stories.

Bartimaeus was a desperate man and 

he didn't have anything to lose to cry out-

'Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

Those around him tried to quiet him.

But, Jesus heard him and simply said, 

"Call him."

Then they rallied round Bartimaeus and told him

 to "take heart, get up, he is calling you."

No need to tell him twice.

He jumped up and went to Jesus.

Jesus asked him, 

"What do you want me to do for you?"

Jesus said to him,

"Go your way; your faith has made you well."

And IMMEDIATELY his sight was recovered

and he followed Jesus on the way.

Now, I would imagine there was some

 rather interesting conversations

on that journey to Jerusalem-

like the color of trees,

how cool to actually see faces, 

and what about this Jesus who gives out 

mercy like cups of water.
