Hope for the Home website: Posted by Martin Family on Nov 12, 2014 The week before Mom was diagnosed, God gave Jamin a powerful poem that has been a great strength to Mom and our family during this time. I will share it with you here. “Blind Bartimaeus” By: Jamin Martin There Blind Bartimaeus sat, None caring for where he was at Great commotion all around, While he just sat on the ground. Though he could not see, he heard The crowd sounded quite absurd. When Bartimaeus asked why They said Jesus was passing by. The thought of Christ brought new hope, To a man who was at the end of his rope. He cried out to Christ, knowing he could heal, To Christ his problem he would reveal. The crowd tried to silence him, His crying was bothering them. To their dismay, he wouldn’t yield, He cried the more a great deal. Christ heard the urgent cry, While He was passing by The cry caused Him to stand still, And reach out His hand to heal. What would the result have been If to the crowd he would listen? No miracle would’ve been wrought; His healing would’ve been naught. The same may be true for you, So here is what you must do: Cry out to God for His aid And your efforts will be repaid.
