So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
— Romans 10:17 (KJV)
As the shadow of the cross loomed, Jesus’ commitment to mercy never wavered. In a divine encounter on the road to Jerusalem, Bartimaeus’s persistent faith brought him more than physical sight—it cured his spiritual blindness. This story serves as a powerful reminder that when we cry out to our compassionate Savior, He is never too burdened to respond with life-changing mercy.
