No Committee Approval Needed

And two blind men sitting by the road, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!”

The crown sternly told them to be quiet, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”

And Jesus stopped and called them, and said “What do you want Me to do for you?” 

The said to Him, “Lord, we want our eyes to be opened.”

Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes; and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.

Matthew 20:30-34

If Jesus would have polled the crowd, the blind men probably would have remained blind.  But Jesus was not in the business of being popular; Jesus was in the business of healing the sick and saving souls.  When He healed the blind men, He did both.

When we cry out to God, He hears us and answers.   He does not ask us about church attendance or if we have money or if we think we are worthy.  He does not appoint a committee to evaluation our requests.

God hears and God answers.  He is merciful and He cares for us
