Mark 10:46-52
One short story about one man that was only mentioned once in the Bible, yet what I have learned from the story of Bartimaeus is immeasurable. So I made a list of what I learned from him…v Seek Jesus! (Even if you have to shout his name.)
v Don’t Ever Get Discouraged! (Keep on even when people are telling you to keep quiet.)
v Run to Jesus When He Calls Your Name! (Even when it means you have to throw down everything else.)
v Tell Jesus What You Want! (He wants to hear from you---besides he already knows what you want in your heart anyway.)
v Believe He Will Answer! (And when it is not immediate, keep on believing.)
v Follow Jesus! (But always remember that follow means you are letting Him lead the way.)
What faith Bartimaeus had in Jesus Christ, he never wavered in his faith, even though he could not see Jesus, he still knew he was there. Jesus even told him that it was his faith that healed him. Don’t you think that might me significant? We can’t see him either, yet our faith should be just as strong as if he were standing right in front of us.
