One day Jesus passed by. He called out – People told him to be quiet but he called louder. “Jesus.”
Jesus heard him and called him. He took off his coat and went to Jesus.
Jesus said, “What do you want me to do?”
He said, “I want to see!”
And Jesus made his eyes all better.
Who was the first person he could see? JESUS!
He was so excited he thanked Jesus, he thanked God and he told every how Jesus had made him see! He told everyone to go and see Jesus!
