    Contributed by Melvin Newland on Mar 5, 2018
    based on 5 ratings
     | 31,861 views

    Opening the eyes of the blind. Though this 9th chapter of John is about Jesus giving sight to a man born blind, but there is so much more here.

    The garden of Eden was a place of security, comfort, abundance and the awesome presence of God. Sadly, outside is sorrow, suffering and regrets. Just like Adam and Eve, we have the power to choose today.

    Contributed by Steve Wilson on Mar 16, 2016
     | 5,800 views

    Though it is difficult for us to relinquish control of our lives to this one who lived long ago (Jesus), it was even more difficult to do so when He walked on this earth. That was especially true for a prominent ruler of the Jews by the name of Nicodemus.
