So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
— Romans 10:17 (KJV)
We are beggars, this is true. If Brother Bartimeus could be healed upon crying out for healing, should we not then cry out likewise to Jesus, compassionate and powerful? Has he not come for beggars? Does he not say to us, “Be of good comfort, rise, I calleth thee”?
