DAY 4 — The Blind Man: The Misunderstood Story
Scripture — John 9:1–7, 24–25 (NLT)
As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth.
“Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?”
“It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,” Jesus answered. “This happened so the power of God could be seen in him.”Later the Pharisees questioned the man. He replied, “I don’t know whether He is a sinner. But I know this: I was blind, and now I can see!”
Passage Summary:
Jesus heals a man born blind. Religious leaders question the miracle, but the man simply tells the truth about his transformation.
Devotional:
The man doesn’t debate theology. He tells his story. God’s power doesn’t always make life quiet — sometimes it makes life louder.

“The most powerful testimony is a changed life.” — John Newton
You don’t need a degree to share what God has done. You just need honesty.
Think About:
Am I hiding my story to keep peace?
Who needs to hear my “before and after”?
Pray:
Jesus, help me live my story boldly and truthfully.
