In trials and suffering, lessons of faith and glorifying God

Was able to read from a daily devotional about the verses John 9:1 – 12 and how Jesus Christ healed a blind man. This man was suffering from a condition, not out of anything bad he had done, but was for the purpose of showing how God works in his life and for all. Sometimes we go through trials and suffering, as a lot of friends back home in the States are going through, this is specifically for them to know and for others to witness. I know God will show His love in all their situations. He’s faithful and always does.

Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
1As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
3"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. 4As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. 5While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
John 9:1 – 5
