Do you believe?
Matthew 9:27-31
Jesus gets to the heart of the matter with his question, ‘Do you believe that I am able to do this?’ The blind man is asked the central question of faith, the same one we are asked.
Do I believe that God is able to provide for me and my family, to create wholeness in my life? Or do I sometimes think the God might provide a baseline, but if I want more money, more food, a better job, I need to work that out on my own?
This text challenges me to think about where my trust really is, and about how to align my “wants” with what God provides.
