John 9

As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And his disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. John 8:1-3 (ESV)

I watched a movie recently that was filmed in Seattle. I bet you can guess the local landmark that was highlighted multiple times in the film...the Space needle. The landmark draws our attention to the city.

God designs events and then uses these events in our lives to draw attention to Him. Some of these events are fun (A blind man receives his sight) and some are not so fun (A man who sees becomes blind). But either way it is a good habit for us to always ask, "What is God doing?" and, "How does He want me to respond?" We either join Him, like the blind man in John 9, or we resist Him like the Pharisees. SWC
