Day 19 - Mark 10:46-52
Persistence
Blind-man Bartimaeus is a great example for us to be relentless in our prayer.
The crowds following Jesus in Jericho must have all wanted something from Jesus. Word had spread that He healed, raised the dead and could feed thousands.
But it was Bartimaeus whose shouts rose above the noise of the crowd that caught the attention of Jesus.
He must have been obnoxious for the crowd to yell at him to be quiet. Yet he continued in desperation to try and get the Lord's attention, believing that Jesus could heal him.
And that's exactly what Jesus did and commended him for his faith.
Will I be as obnoxiously persistent when I need Jesus to answer my requests?
