Daily Thoughts - The Beginning.
"When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Child, your sins are forgiven." Now some of the scribes were sitting there asking themselves, "Why does this man speak that way? He is blaspheming. Who but God alone can forgive sins?" Jesus immediately knew in his mind what they were thinking to themselves, so he said, "Why are you thinking such things in your hearts?" Mark 2:5-8
God knows the heart. As I sit and watch Jesus this morning face His day. I see the faith of the paralytic man and his friends, I see their desire to help their friend and the acceptance by the friend. I see the prejudice within the hearts of the scribes, condemning Jesus for what He was doing, they were not witnesses to the healing power of God.
I look within the Son of Man, True God and True man. He sees all their hearts and not only does He want to heal the paralytic, He wants to heal the scribes. The pain He must of felt knowing that they do not see the perfect creation His Father created.
I look within my day and see the same events unfold in various ways. I see the judgement that is placed upon another and I see the love that is within another's heart. Healing comes in many forms when we look with the knowledge that God's creation is perfectly made. We have to overcome our own prejudices to bring the light of Christ to another as you are being persecuted without judgement. Have a blessed day walking with Him.
Dear Father God, the lessons that unfold if we are willing to listen. If we are willing to learn from what you are saying within scripture. The words go much deeper that what is being said. I pray for the heart of man, that we see Your perfect creation and the power of Your healing touch. May others walk as He did. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
