Today's Devotion:
"WHAT Will You DO For A FRIEND"
I remember when Ann & I were building a
house.
The contractor had left during the construction.
Friends came to help!
One built cabinets in the kitchen.
One plumbed the house.
One did the electricity.
One kept our children in the evening so
Ann & I could do the paneling.
They all came FREE of charge!
_______SCRIPTURE____________
Mark 2:3-12
3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of
the palsy, which was borne of four.
4 And when they could not come nigh unto him
for the press, they uncovered the roof where he
was: and when they had broken it up, they let down
the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.
5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick
of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.
6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there,
and reasoning in their hearts,
7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who
can forgive sins but God only?
8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his
spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he
said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your
hearts?
9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy,
Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take
up thy bed, and walk?
10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath
power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick
of the palsy,)
11 I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and
go thy way into thine house.
12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and
went forth before them all; insomuch that they were
all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw
it on this fashion.
KJV
_______THOUGHT______________
Here was a man, totally incapable of helping himself.
His friends literally CARRIED him to Jesus!
I call this story, "They day they tore the roof off for
a friend!"
These friends found A WAY to get their friend to
Jesus!
How much compassion to we EXHIBIT for our
friends who have not Christ?
No matter WHO we bring to Jesus, He is ABLE
to forgive and save!
WHO are YOU thinking about?
Pray for them daily.
Then FIND A WAY to get them to Jesus!
It's not that your friend will call to Jesus for
salvation.
It is that Jesus will call to HIM/HER!
Love ya!
