Healing in Stages

When we are looking for a healing answer to a physical or spiritual problem, often, as in the case of the blind man from Bethsaida (cf. Mk 8:22-26), the answer doesn't come immediately or totally.  As in this case, sight was returned in stages.  We see progress, but there remains a blurr, and yes, we see "trees walking." for awhile.  Our faith, our persistence, is being tested.  God knows what he is doing, and we learn from these partial answers that we must hold on in faith for the total cure. Not easy, but worth it in the end.  Lord, increase my patience and trust as I present my needs to you.
