“Jesus heard that they had put him out, and finding him, He said, ‘Do you believe in the Son of Man?’” (John 9:35)

Jesus had already healed the blind man before He asked him if he trusted Him. So it is with us. Jesus has already healed our stony hearts, dissolved sin’s hold on our souls, joined us to His Spirit of Love and Truth, infused us with His trust in Father God, united us one with the other, and urged us to specific tasks that He can do through our fleshly bodies. He has placed us in Himself always to be where He is, doing what He is doing, and that for eternity. After He has accomplished all this, He faces off with you and asks, “Do you trust Me?”

We are slaves to the one we trust, death or Life.

Father, You have given me Your life to live as You live it with the added extra that I can think is my doing.
