Mark Chapter 6

Brothers and Sisters 😊

📖 In Mark chapter 6 today we see Jesus’ own countrymen rejecting Him in a foolish display of pride and arrogance, being offended by (and presuming upon the kindness of) the Savior of the world – likewise causing great personal loss to themselves…

“And Jesus departed from His hometown knowing that He must do no mighty works there because of the many people who were critical of Him, and took offense at His teaching” (vs 1-5 medley).

Q. Have you ever questioned God’s authority and good plan for your life, feeling bitter against Him when He took you out of your comfort zone to teach you something new?

🙏 Heavenly Father please forgive me for the many times I missed out on your gracious favor, blessing, and sweet communion with you because I did not trust you or praise you in the storm.

🙏 Holy Spirit please help us to be patient and not miss the lessons that you are teaching us – empower all of us to “Taste and see that the Lord is good”, consistently putting our trust in the Good Shepherd, and knowing that His finished work on our behalf causes all things to work together for our good, and for the glory of God…

✝️ “When Jesus saw the great crowd, He had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and He loved them and began to teach them many things.”

Mark 6:34
