The Friends Who Cut Through the Roof — a 5-minute devotion for Umkomaas 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.

If mornings are the only quiet minutes your Umkomaas household gets, use this before the school run. Read Mark 2:1-12, say the verse once in the car, and come back to the question on the way home. Repetition is doing the work, not length.

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.
