I hope this finds you all well and having a wonderful day so far. Pastor Andy started our new series titled “Heroes”, he discussed Mark 2:1-5. Can imagine having faith so strong that, just knowing if you were in the presence of Jesus that you would be healed. Those four men knew if they could just get their friend (the paralytic man) to Jesus, that he would be healed, because of the crowd, they went so far as to get on the roof to cut a hole in it and lowered their friend on a mat to the feet of Jesus, because of their faith. Jesus said” My child, your sins are forgiven.”
As Pastor Andy said, does the bible mention the names of those four men? No…there are so many nameless heroes. While I was praying God brought to my attention…”Tabitha how often you are in the presence of other people, even more important your daughter.” I’m not sure about all of you but I want to be my daughter’s hero, I want her to look at me and my life and be proud. I want to set a good example for her, for my family and my friends, also all those I come in contact with. Just for today, pay attention to all those you come in contact with, whether it be your children, employees, family or friends. How do you think they see you…As a hero, positive, encouraging, full of faith? Or discouraging, negative and pessimistic? I choose to be a hero today and God willing for as long as I am blessed to be here on this earth.
Do you want your faith increased? Do you want to be healed? How about this…How BAD do you want those things? I know how you can get it, its simple really…Lets ask the maker, Jesus. He is always waiting on the other side of the door, matter of fact he’s right there in the room with you just waiting for you to say “HELP me Lord, I can’t do this on my own, I want to be healed and when you pray…HAVE FAITH KNOWING HE WILL DO JUST THAT!!! I’m sure most of you saw the super bowl last night, I don’t know about you guys but the only team I want to be on is Jesus’ team, and the only way to fail and not win is to not ask him into your heart and to be in control of your life.
The LORD is close to everyone who prays to him, to all who truly pray to him.
Psalm 145:18
Lord, I pray that you would bless every eye reading this, I pray that if there is someone uncertain of where they may end up, they choose you today and forever, I pray that every prayer they ask that it would be heard, that every heart and pain would be healed, that faith would be increased, that marriages would be restored, that relationships would be meaningful and whole and lead by you, I pray that we would lay all our cares, worries, anxieties, stresses at your feet Lord God. You are the master of all things, you are the reason for every breath we take, for every good thing that we have. I thank you Lord for loving us beyond our faults and forgiving us even when we struggle to forgive ourselves. May every eye reading this be blessed beyond imagination and may they find favor with you Lord. I love you and thank you for your son Jesus, and it’s in his name I pray. Amen. Hope you have a wonderful week!!
In Christ Love,
