Two Sundays ago, Jesus said the things we think are impossible are actually possible for God. The Bartimaeus episode in today's Gospel is but a proof of this. Perhaps Batimaeus had given up hope of being able to see again. But when he heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, a ray of hope was kindled in him, and he tried as loud as He can to call His attention. And Jesus did notice, asked him what He wanted and gave him what he desired. Indeed what Bartimaeus and perhaps even the people around him have given up as impossible was actually made possible by Jesus.... with Bartimaeus' persistent, persevering prayer.
What do you want Jesus to do for you?
