Today’s story is from the book of John and is about Jesus! I can’t wait to read all about it! One day, Jesus was walking through a town and saw a man who was born blind. He had never seen the sunset or the ocean, or even what his mom and dad looked like.
Jesus’s disciples asked Jesus why the man was born blind. Jesus told them that He knew that the man was special and that God was about to do something amazing! Then, Jesus made some mud from the dirt on the ground and put it on the man’s eyes. He told the man to go wash the mud off in a nearby pool. All of the sudden, after the man washed the mud off his eyes, he could see! He could see flowers and trees and clouds in the sky for the first time ever. That’s so amazing!
Lots of people noticed that the man could finally see as he was walking home. They were so surprised and wanted to know what happened! The man told them that Jesus had healed him. Everyone went looking for Jesus, but He had already left the town. But the man and everyone else kept telling everyone all about Jesus!
Has Jesus ever done anything amazing in your life that you can tell other people about?
What can you thank Him for this week?
How can you be grateful every day?
Prayer: God, thank You for always taking care of me and giving me so much to be grateful for. Thank You for my family, my friends, and every day that I get to be happy and enjoy everything that You have made. Help me to remember to thank You for all of the good things in my life and to tell others about how amazing You are, just like the man in the story today. I love You, God. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
