Reading God’s Word: Mark 2:1-28; Psalm 31:19-24

Memorizing God’s Word: John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Meditating on God’s Word: Mark 2:17, “On hearing this, Jesus said to them, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.’”

Praying God’s Word: “Lord, help me today to have a greater appreciation for the diagnosis here. I am sick from the disease of sin, self-centeredness, and death. It’s a terminal case! I have no cure! So, let me realize how profound this sickness is so that I can also realize how great your cure is! Jesus, there is no sin sickness that You have not addressed in Your life, death, and resurrection. Thank you for being my healer! Amen.”
