John 9:35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of God?" 9:36 He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?" 9:37 Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you." 9:38 He said, "Lord, I believe!" and he worshiped him.

Today many Christian's think of so many clever ways to bring people to Christ. They think if they could just impact a person with some word, some picture, some great act, or truth uncovered a person would convert, its just one thing missing, and they think if they can find it would save the person? Yes, there is one thing missing? God's appointment with the person in Spirit and truth.

John 3:31 He who comes from above is above all. He who is from the Earth belongs to the Earth, and speaks of the Earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.

John 6:37 All those who the Father gives me will come to me. Him who comes to me I will in no way throw out.

We find no great discussion with people Christ had, usually a few words, even the apostles of Christ only used a few words, and the person believed, and dedicated themselves to God. Even though Jesus act was great here for the blind man, few words were spoken beyond the truth. The truth was found in God's good work towards this man, and if the truth be known? All of us converted to Christianity when God did some good work for us, or in us, we then accepted Christ with few words, we believed the actions of God in his good work for us, which made the words of the bible truth too us.

John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, 'They will all be taught by God.'{Isaiah 54:13} Therefore everyone who hears from the Father, and has learned, comes to me.

1Cor.3:7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

Each of must search for God, but he is not far off from anyone of us. This man was searching God, God knew his heart that is why he stood up for the truth of Christ. Moreover, that is why, he gave Christ worship as the son of God. He had communed with God already, he had sought understanding of God, and when good came from God the man's faith, in the secret place of his heart was rewarded. Let all of us, spend more time in prayer asking God to direct us to those seeking him, let us put less emphases on appealing to a person flesh by some great thing we think will draw them to Christ. Let us use the wisdom of God in Christ Jesus mind, let us be directed by God, and his holy angels to those with meek hearts.

Matthew 18:14 Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

Luke 21:18 And not a hair of your head will perish.

John 3:15 that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

Please let this be God's work, for than it will be perfect, it will have lasting effects forever with certain success. But if it is from us, it will be burnt up, it will rob others of eternal life. Do you have faith in God's love? Do you believe not one person that loves him will perish? Let us be reasonable not fretting that the kingdom of God is something of man will or working, nor that we can give it too a person. Let us not be a worry wort thinking such anxious care is from the Spirit of God.

Acts 17:27 that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

Mark 4:39 He awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" The wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

Mark 4:41 They were greatly afraid, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

If God cares so little about eternal lives of his creation leaving it up to us to make it happen, we will certainly burn out, and up like as stubble of field when fire hits it. We are but a moment on this earth, he is from every lasting to every lasting, we are but mist, here today and gone tomorrow. In death so perish our thoughts, our loves, hates, worries, all gone with us, but God's work last forever, if we have faith in his goodness, and not our own. If we put faith in the unfailing love, of the God of love, let us have faith!

Matthew 21:21 Jesus answered them, "Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith, and don't doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it would be done.

Isa. 40:27 Why do you say, Jacob, and speak, Israel, "My way is hidden from Yahweh, and the justice due me is disregarded by my God?" 40:28 Haven't you known? Haven't you heard? The everlasting God, Yahweh, The Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn't faint. He isn't weary. His understanding is unsearchable. 40:29 He gives power to the weak. He increases the strength of him who has no might. 40:30 Even the youths faint and get weary, and the young men utterly fall; 40:31 But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.
