Blind man Quote by Daniel Partner
““As Jesus walked in Jerusalem, he saw a blind man. This man had been born blind. His disciples asked this question: "Teacher, whose fault is it that he is blind? Did his parents sin? Was it his sin that caused this?" "He was born blind for a reason," Jesus answered. "This has nothing to do with anyone's sin. God wants to work in him. We must do God's work while it is day. Night is coming when no one can work. As long as I'm in the world, I'm the light of the world.””
