Intro
Being at the library one time.
Step Mom didn’t show, Dad didn’t know and I couldn’t get a hold of anyone on the telephone.
It felt like I was all alone.
I stood outside in my shorts, it was spring time in OK, so warm in the day but cool in the evening.
I was standing there freezing and thinking everyone has forgotten about me, I don’t even know how to get home.
I think we have all had these moments in life.
Moments when we feel all alone, I can tell you that the blind man sure felt all alone, the man who healed him not around, parents forsaken him for fear of themselves and his spiritual leaders throwing him out to the wolves.
Man it sure can feel pretty lonely in this world, but I want to tell you Jesus knows, even when we can’t see Him or feel Him, Jesus know as it says here in John 9:35
Pray
Jesus heard and found the healed man.
He had never truly forsaken him, it may seem like Jesus is far off but He is always near.
In the loneliest of times, He is right there with us through the Holy Spirit, just like it was for this man.
