A Paralyzed Man


Thursday, March 8 – Read Mark 2:1-12

Four friends bring a paralyzed man to Jesus. When Jesus pronounces the man forgiven, the religious authorities react badly. “No one can forgive sins but God,” they protest. But the healing power of Christ’s forgiveness enables the man to walk home.

Reflection Question: When have you felt forgiven by others or by God? How has forgiveness set you free?

Prayer: Dear God, thank you for forgiving me for the times I have gone wrong. Thank you for looking beyond my faults to see my fears and my needs. In Jesus’ love I pray. Amen.
