Alleluia! There's Something About That Name
“Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?’ Then I said, ‘Here am I. Send me!’ And He said, ‘Go, and tell this people, ‘Keep on listening, but do not perceive; keep on looking, but do not understand.
“’Render the hearts of this people insensitive, their ears dull, and their eyes dim, lest they see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and return and be healed.’” Isaiah 6:8-10
“And they said to him, ‘Where is He?’ He said, ‘I do not know.’ They brought to the Pharisees him who was formerly blind. Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
“Again, therefore, the Pharisees also were asking him how he received his sight. And he said to them, ‘He applied clay to my eyes, and I washed, and I see.’ Therefore, some of the Pharisees were saying, ‘This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath.’ But others were saying, ‘How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?’ And there was a division among them.
“They said therefore to the blind man again, ‘What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?’ And he said, ‘He is a prophet.’ The Jews therefore did not believe it of him, that he had been blind, and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight and questioned them, saying, ‘Is this your son, who you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?’
“His parents answered them and said, ‘We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; but how he now sees, we do not know or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him; he is of age, he shall speak for himself.’” John 9:12-20
There are only 20 days till the day when ‘heart-blindness’ was done away with for eternity. I hope you make time to listen to the not-so-perfect recording of ‘There’s Something About That Name’. I promise it will make your heart sing and … you may even cry with thanksgiving for how He meets each of us and heals our individual blindness!
Take care with love, especially His! Your servant and friend in Christ, who still prays for you each morning. Darlene
