John 9

.
I've already written 15 pages today (thank you J-term busy work... and maybe a whole lot of procrastination on my part) so this will be brief.
I love what the formerly blind man says to the people who continue to question how he was healed. He doesn't understand who Christ is, but he uses his head and calls out the pharisees stupidity. I think he even gets sarcastic in verse 30 - "Why, this is an amazing thing!" Then he perfectly articulates the ignorance of their claim that Jesus is a sinner and brightly illuminates why Christ must be from God.
My prayer is that in the face of the world's attempts to distort and dismiss the evident hand of God, we are able to clearly see his work and with equal clarity proclaim his truth.
