Sickness and healingMercy and compassionPrayer

25 After the crowd had been put outside, Jesus went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.

26 And the news about this spread throughout that region.

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”

28 After Jesus had entered the house, the blind men came to Him. “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” He asked. “Yes, Lord,” they answered.

29 Then He touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you.”
