Today, Bartimaeus is teaching us four things:

1. Be BOLD in our faith

BOLD - confident and courageous! Just like Bartimaeus, let us not be afraid to direct to God our prayers. Let us be confident in the point that amidst the crowd that could hinder us, we continue to raise our voice knowing that God will hear us.

2. Be PERSISTENT

Let our prayers be constant, persistent and never ceasing. Let us not grew weary when things are not on our side.

3. RECOGNIZE the power of God in our lives

Know who to call. Recognize that your life is in the hands of God and He will never let you down.

4. SHOW our gratefulness to God

In good and in bad, always have a grateful heart. Always remember to thank the Lord for everything. Follow Him, praise Him and evangelize for Him.
