Losing is Finding; Believing is Seeing: Luke 18:31-43

On Sunday, Jesus will enter Jerusalem on the back of a donkey and, for the first time, gladly receive the coronation cries of the crowd. He knows his crown will not be one of gold, but rather, one of thorns. He tries once more to warn his disciples, but they can’t see it. As if to illustrate the point that believing is seeing, Jesus performs his last miracle: He gives sight to a blind man in response to his faith.
