Jesus is the powerful and compassionate Savior. He hears all those who humbly call upon Him for help. In Matthew 20:29-34, we see that Jesus gives sight to two blind men who plead for mercy. Their faith is in the ability of the Lord, the Son of David. In the passages, we will see the anatomy and fruit of saving faith. Join with us as we ask God for the grace to receive what He will say to us this coming Sunday.
