There is much in life we do not know or understand, but God has a purpose in all things and He is at work in our lives.  The blind man didn't know how or why Jesus healed Him, but he joyfully declared the one thing he did know.  And that's what we must do!  The one thing we know, that Christ has saved us, is the one thing we must make known.

In today's passage the religious leaders were actually angry that Jesus had healed a man because He did it on the Sabbath.  Jesus asks them one question to reveal their sinful attitude.  What one thing is God probing your heart about - trying to reveal to you?  What's your "one thing?"  Join Scott Pauley's study through Scripture this year.

(Colossians 4:7-9) Letters were meant to be read and relayed. Thankfully, the letter of Philemon was passed on, and now it is our turn.
