Jesus Cares For ALL People

As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." He [the blind man] called out, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy (pity, compassion, kindness, forgiveness, sympathy) on me!" Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted (and screamed) all the more, "Son of David, have mercy (pity , compassion , kindness, forgiveness, sympathy) on me!" Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to Him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, "What do you want Me to do for you?" "Lord, I want to see," he replied. Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight; your faith [your trust and confidence in God] has healed [or saved] you." Immediately [instantly] he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising [and honoring] God [Father, Son-Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit]. When all the people saw it, they also praised God. Luke 18:35-43 (NIV).

The story of Luke 18:35-43 demonstrates Jesus’ care for people, particularly the poor and weak. The Holy Bible is clear that people are to care for one another, especially the needy (Leviticus 25:35-38) and Jesus demonstrated that care for people.

In addition, this blind man demonstrated that faith in Jesus brings blessings. This man repeatedly and shamelessly cried out for Jesus' help, and Jesus said that his faith healed and saved him. No matter what your circumstance or your situation, call out to Jesus (our Messiah and Son of David) in faith for His mercy and He will help you.

P.S., Do not forget to be merciful to others as Jesus is merciful to you (see Matthew 5:7; James 2:13).
