True, the blind man by calling Jesus son of David means he believed that the prophesy had already been fulfilled and he knew Jesus is the Messiah... Thanks Keith put us in your prayers so that God may continue to reveal Himself to us like He has done to you and give us such obedience... I mean leaving such a prestigious life to follow the true church of Christ is a high order of obedience.
Love that one. My fav is the pharasee/tax collector parable in Luke. That’s how I converted. It was a simple cry for mercy from a position of repentance. It wasn’t some elaborate sinners prayer any garbage like that. All we can really do a seek God from the heart. I feel like genuine saving faith is most noticeable in those broken then redeemed. I even see this prayer method in the rosary from my wife. Shes often in tears because she lost her mother recently and those prayers give her such stability to the father.
Tried to get my daughter to say Lord Jesus have mercy on me. She keeps saying Lord Jesus have mercy on YOU. I guess we're still telling our neighbor stuff 😂
This is the simplest and yet the most powerful prayer for centuries in the Easter Orthodox Church: “Jesus Son of God have mercy on me a sinner “ We call it the noetic prayer and repeat it constantly anytime and everywhere, while driving, doing chores, resting etc… The Holy Fathers speak a lot about this prayer in the Orthodox Church!
Please forgive me and thank YOU for everything YOU have done for me, especially the things I didn't know about or could see. That is one of the biggest things people don't realize is the things you don't know WHAT HE DID FOR you, you spec . It amazes me the things people think they are entitled to. What letter is in the center of entitled, I what about sin , I or pride . Advice, don't ever ask GOD why, your small brain would never comprehend, the answer would probably melt your brain. HE owes nothing to nobody and we are nothing. HE COULD MAKE IT TO WHERE YOU NEVER HAVE EVER EXISTED. Or put you in a lake of fire for spitting IN JESUS CHRIST'S FACE . That's what it is when you turn away from HIM after what HE did for you, you mr nobody.
