They reached Jericho; and as he left Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus -- that is, the son of Timaeus -- a blind beggar, was sitting at the side of the road.
When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout and cry out, 'Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me.'
And many of them scolded him and told him to keep quiet, but he only shouted all the louder, 'Son of David, have pity on me.'
Jesus stopped and said, 'Call him here.' So they called the blind man over. 'Courage,' they said, 'get up; he is calling you.'
So throwing off his cloak, he jumped up and went to Jesus.
Then Jesus spoke, 'What do you want me to do for you?' The blind man said to him, 'Rabbuni, let me see again.'
Jesus said to him, 'Go; your faith has saved you.' And at once his sight returned and he followed him along the road.
Saint Mark 10:46-52

My Reading Notes:
------------------
Many a time you would come across such sayings, that this
is a time of NO miracles. They would tell you: DO NOT
expect miracles.
I can tell you in the name of Jesus Christ, those are
false prophets.
There are miracles everywhere.
All those seek in their own faith, shall find what
they want.
And every one who worked hard, had found what they
were expected to find. All those fought hard, will
win. There are no failure for the fighters. You
could achieve something always.
