Acts 9 In the Bible, Paul(Saul of Tarsus) was struck blind by a light from heaven on his way to persecute Christians. Three days later his vision restored and was restored by a Christian. The same Christian he was on his way to persecuting, ironic isn’t it? God has a sense of humor!!!

How many of us like Saul needs to be blinded so we can see. Paul was blinded for three days like Jonah was in the whale belly. It makes the mind wonder about the supernatural transformation of the spirit that goes on in those three days. Could it be a dimension that is traveled into for those days, a downloading of information and works that’s done in the heart and mind through God?

I know for myself to keep focus on God I have to be blinded by the things of the world because there are certain things that can be a distraction. What the eyes see the heart grief and can became an obstacle that weakens me. As the Bible says, “be in the world but not of it” 1John2:15

Blinded, deaf, mute, and lame, sometimes it’s a physical impairment or a spiritual one. In the Bible Jesus came to be the sacrificial lamb to take away our sins, he healed multitudes that had these impairments. A touch from Jesus awaken their spirit; like he did Paul, he turn around their lives and have them follow him by faith and his works. Paul blindness was not due to a physical impairment, but rather a spiritual one. When his sight was restored he no longer wanted to persecute Christians. Remember also these physical impairments are the results of sin. God is not hurting us so we can follow him. He’s healing us so we can be build up faith that he’s a God of love, mercy, and compassion for us all.

We may have certain impairment according to Paul 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 A thorn to humble us in knowing, if it hadn’t been for the Lord who was on our side and not we ourselves can take the credit, especially for those things that are impossible for us. God is so good!

Pray that God opens our blind eyes that we can see, see truths, see beyond the darkness and bitterness that sometimes over Shadows our lives. Open our ears to hear Him and him alone speaking to us not the lies of the enemy, and the distortions of sound doctoring. Open our mouth and fill it with good food in which to eat so we can speak love, truth and righteousness and our Lame legs to walk; to walk in the path of righteousness.
