“And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.  And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.  And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?  They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.  So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.”

Matthew: 20: 30 – 34

King James Version

All of us are born with spiritual blindness.  All of us are lost in our sins until Jesus passes by and touches our sin hardened cold hearts with His amazing unconditional love, His mercy, and His grace, forgiveness, understanding, compassion, tenderness and kindness.  If you will notice in these verses that when the men called out to Jesus, He stood still and listened.  So often in the busyness of our days when somebody calls out to us for help, we tend to answer them while our minds are on something else and we don’t give them our full attention.
