Tonight's family reading · De Aar

The Friends Who Cut Through the Roof — a 5-minute devotion for De Aar families

Mark 2:1-12 · Faith carried by friends

The house was so crowded nobody else could get in, so four friends carried a paralysed man onto the roof, dug through it and lowered him down. Jesus saw their faith and told the man to get up and walk.

Families in De Aar tend to run this one at the dinner table. Read Mark 2:1-12 out loud while the plates are still down, ask the question once, and let the youngest answer first. It takes about five minutes and it does not need anyone to have prepared.

Memory verse

“When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralysed man, 'Son, your sins are forgiven.'”
Mark 2:5

Table question

Who needs you to carry them to Jesus right now?

30-second prayer

Jesus, when our own faith is thin, thank you for friends who carry us. Amen.

Make it stick: let a child read Mark 2:1-12 out loud tomorrow instead of you. Reading it to the family is worth ten times hearing it.

Tomorrow: Jesus calls Levi from the tax booth (Mark 2:13-17). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
