Jesus has sent me that you may receive your sight

Acts 9:17
... the Lord Jesus ... has sent me that you may receive your sight ....

Paul was blinded following his encounter with the Risen Lord. In this passage, a servant was God was directed to pray for Paul and his blindness was removed. This physical blindness extraordinarily symbolizes the spiritual blindness of Paul before he met the Lord.

Once he received his sight, Paul was changed forever. The only thing he sees after that is Christ and all his life from then on was fully devoted to Christ. His life became a mission to tell others about the good news of Jesus. He lived a genuine life pointing others to the true Lord and nothing else distracted him.
