DAY 9 OF 14 · Faith and perseverance
Faith Strengthened in Community
At times, faith looks like carrying someone who cannot reach Jesus alone.
PRIMARY PASSAGE
Mark 2:1–12
Read this passage slowly in your Bible before continuing. My Daily Altar uses the King James Version for its English Scripture experience.
BIBLICAL CONTEXT
Listen to the passage on its own terms.
The paralyzed man’s friends refused to let the crowd become the end of the story. Jesus saw their faith expressed through determined, loving action.
Reflect
Who needs me to help carry a burden in prayer or practical care?
Respond
Contact one person and offer a specific form of help or prayer.
Pray
Lord, make my faith useful to someone else. Teach me to carry burdens with perseverance and love.
