What does this show me about God?
- Jesus asks him what he can see, and then touches him again. What does that show about Jesus?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- "I see people; they look like trees walking." Have you ever half-understood something about God?
What will I obey this week?
- What do you only half understand? Who will you ask about it this week?
Who will I tell?
- Who is confused about Jesus? What could you tell them?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
Jesus, this man's healing came in two steps and you did not leave halfway. Thank you for finishing what you start in me.
