—Mark 7:31-37
by: Steven James.
We don't know the names of those who brought this man who was deaf and dumb to Jesus. In the face of an incredible affliction, the fact that they brought him shows bold faith. Their bold faith wasn't brash-they allowed Jesus to take their friend aside privately and heal him. After their friend was made whole, their bold faith couldn't be held back-they broadcast the wonderful thing Jesus did to all who would hear. How bold is your faith in the midst of your burden or the burden of someone you love?
