Tonight's family reading · May Pen
Bartimaeus Shouts Louder — a 5-minute devotion for May Pen families
Mark 10:46-52 · Ask for what you actually want
A blind beggar heard Jesus was passing and started shouting. The crowd told him to be quiet, so he shouted louder. Jesus stopped the whole procession and asked him one question: what do you want me to do for you?
Parents in May Pen often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Mark 10:46-52 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "ask for what you actually want" is harder than it sounds.
Memory verse
“What do you want me to do for you?”Mark 10:51
Table question
If Jesus asked you that tonight, what would you say?
30-second prayer
Jesus, here is what we actually want. Thank you that you stop and ask. Amen.
Make it stick: write "Mark 10:51" on the fridge tonight. Every time someone in the house opens it this week, they say the verse out loud. May Pen kids find this funnier than it deserves, which is exactly why it works.
Tomorrow: the rich young ruler (Mark 10:17-27). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
