John 9:41

John 9:41

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

The contrast concerns admitted need and proud claimed insight, not physical blindness or disabled people’s morality.

Memory phrase: Claimed sight

Talk about it: What contrast does Jesus make between admitted need and claimed sight?

Prayer: Jesus, help me admit my need instead of claiming insight I do not have.
