Change of lifestyle

To read the whole of the passage Mark 2: 1-12 click here


The man was paralysed. A few minutes later he could walk. It was a tremendous change. We do not know how many months or years he had been lying on his bed. We do not know if he had a wife or not. All we know is that he was only capable of lying on his bed until a conversation with Jesus. Then he walked. It was evening. Did he go home and celebrate? How did he celebrate? Did he dance and shout? The next day his friends would not be carrying him to the roadside to beg. He was going out to look for work. Was that a shock for his system? Was it a difficult change?

What change has Jesus given you?
