How confident and trusting are we towards God, when we ask Him to grant us our wants and needs? Some of us say we are confident, but we get disappointed so easily when our prayers are not answered quickly. Some of us do not even bother to ask, and go looking elsewhere for help, only to find that these other means are really no help at all. How many of us sincerely and persistently ask, and then wait patiently for God's response?
In today's Gospel. two blind men followed Jesus shouting, "Take pity on
us, Son of David." These blind men did not just sit around and expect
Jesus to heal them, they took effort to follow Jesus till He reached the
house.The Gospel also tells us: "Jesus asked them: 'Do you believe I can do this?' They said, ‘Sir, we do.’ Then he touched their eyes saying, ‘Your faith deserves it, so let this be done for you.’ And their sight returned." These two blind men were cured because they had complete confidence and trust in Jesus. What about us? Would we have the same confidence like these two blind men, when we ask Jesus for something? May we doubt no longer, and let Jesus be in control, knowing that He will grant us what is best for us.
