Born blind

Born blind. The man now sees. 

And gives witness. Boldly.

His own parents battle nerves when religious authorities come calling. They fear banishment from the synagogue if they give credit to Jesus for this miracle.

“He’s of age; ask him” (John 9:23).

“Was blind, but now I see.”

Scattered

“So those who were scattered went on their way preaching the Word” (Acts 8:4).

Scattered. After Stephen’s death by stoning. After great persecution broke out against the church.

Scattered, they proclaimed. 

Spreading the gospel.

Lamp shining

Lamp shining in a dark place. That’s what Peter calls it. 

Truth speaking. Holding us steady while it is night.

So, pay attention. Watch and learn. 

Until the Day dawns.
