When the Lord healed the man born blind

[Mary Naeem]

Pope Shenouda III







When the Lord healed the man born blind, He put mud on his eyes and said to him: "'Go, wash in the Pool of Siloam' (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing" (John.9: 6,7). With his mere belief, the blind man could have seen, but God wished to enlighten him (baptism is spiritual enlightenment) through water. Let God's will be done the way He wishes; we do not design plans to be carried out by God, blessed be His name
