A Note From the Pastor
*******************
"And again He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house.  Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door.  And He preached the word to them.  Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men.  And when they could not come near Him, because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was.  So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying.  When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven." 
Mark 2: 1-5
 
As most of you probably know by now, for the last two weeks we have been taking care of a very sick parent in the hospital.  And this has caused me to do alot of thinking about things I wouldn't normally think of.  But mostly, it's caused me to wonder, "How much should I be doing to in order to get someone to Jesus?"  I mean, you have to admit, those four men stopped at nothing to get their friend to Him.  Not crowds, not rooftops, not anything stood in their way.  Because they knew that there was only ONE way he was going to be healed, and that was, if they carried their friend and laid him at the feet of Jesus.  Pretty amazing, huh?  So in our everyday life, with the many people we place on our prayer lists, and those people who ask us to pray for them, and even some of those people who get under our skin;  how often are we laying them at the feet of Jesus?  And what are we doing to get them there?    Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father, except through Me."  So we can spend our days trying to get by the best way we can, hoping that our friends and loved ones get better, or we can do what those four men did and carry their friend to Jesus.  So what about you?  What are you doing to get someone you love to know Jesus? 
 
God Bless you this week.
In Christ,
Bro. Billy
