Seeing Through the Eyes, Mind & Heart of Jesus

10-24-2021Msgr. Ellsworth R. Walden

“Leave Jesus alone!” Who would ever say that? That is exactly what people are telling the blind man Bartimaeus in today’s Gospel. (Mark 10:46- 52) Obviously Bartimaeus has heard about Jesus and is reaching out to Him as he is walking by. How sad it is to see people trying to keep him from encountering Jesus. But Bartimaeus persists and Jesus responds: “What do you want me to do for you?” Bartimaeus responds, “Master, I want to see!” Jesus’ response is: “Go your way; your faith has saved you.” Then the scriptures tell us: “Immediately he received his sight and followed Him on the way.”
