I was blind, but now I see! - John 9:25

All of the people and things I have been seeing lately make me think that maybe I have been blind. Being blind, in the metaphorical sense, and choosing not to see the blessings in a person or a situation is a hard lesson. Praise be to God, when He gives us the time and the ability to learn what is true, right, and worthy of praise! Let us celebrate and focus on the reasons for celebrating. Let us give thanks with our voices and actions make a sacrifice to our God....Salvation belongs to Him! (Jonah 2:9; Portals of Prayers for today, October 24, 2010)
