Our Savior is alive and interested in our pain

"This man was born blind so that God's power could be shown in Him." John 9:3

Jesus and His disciples were walking down the road when they saw a blind man. The disciples said, "Jesus, who sinned?" Jesus said, "No one sinned." Then Jesus healed the man. And he answered once and for all that our pain is not a result of our sin. God is not so small that He would zap us when we jake a mistake. In fact, this passage teaches just the opposite: Our Savior is not asleep; our Savior is alive and interested in our pain.
