Then Jesus was led by the Spirit...
Matthew 4:1 NIV
Monday morning and there's things to do...and for me sometimes that can be a reflection of my Christian life...good things to do, good principles to live by...and I miss the thing that our God really wants - a dynamic relationship with Him, where His Spirit leads us...we just have to be willing to follow...
Jesus was led by the Spirit, then that's where I want to be too. And in following Him, my Monday morning stuff gets seen in a whole new light...

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
