This chapter is so full with meat to chew on and digest. However, the healing of the blind man brought me back to when God healed my eyes and mind to know His truth. Yes, revelation and spiritual growth is a process, but for each of us it begins in a moment! I remember that moment very clearly to this day.
A Blind Man Healed at Bethsaida –
Mark 8:
22 Then He came to Bethsaida; and they brought a blind man to Him, and begged Him to touch him.
23 So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spit on his eyes and put His hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.
24 And he looked up and said, “I see men like trees, walking.”
25 Then He put His hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restored and saw everyone clearly.
26 Then He sent him away to his house, saying, “Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town.”
