Be Thou my vision

Thank you all for your sharing and participation at the RHG last week.  I learnt a lot through the questions raised and the powerful testimonies by Mimi and Moniza.  Indeed, the presence of the Holy Spirit at work among us was very obvious and convincing.  Praise Him!!!
One after thought…
If you are the blind man, would you complain about being “used” for God’s purpose or simply give thanks for His healing?
From the Bible account, the blind man chose the latter.  And for me, I would have done exactly the same.
Generally, people appreciate their health a lot more after suffering a sickness.  By the same token, the Bible describes the joy of bringing a baby into this world is enough to make the mom forget all about labor pains.  In the case of the blind man, gaining vision after all these years must be an overwhelmingly joyful experience that he’ll never forget; and I can just imagine the excitement in his eyes when he goes and tell the world about his healing.
Can you recall the first time when Christ entered your life and opened your eyes to His Salvation? 
Did you give thanks or complained of the past living in blindness?
Did you not rejoiced and spread the Good News to others around you?
In the same mind set, when your eyes are opened to the meaning of a special Bible verse, did you not experience great joy and praise Him for His Work?
Be thou my vision.... so that I not only see the storm but the rainbow after!!
