The paralyzed man was desperate to walk again. He and his friends had faith that Jesus could heal him, but the crowds surrounding Jesus made access seem impossible. Yet the friends didn’t give up. Through sheer determination, they overcame hardship and endured ridicule to reach Jesus.
How desperate are you for God’s healing touch—both for yourself and your loved ones? Are you willing to press on despite opposition, obstacles, and distractions to enter Christ’s presence? When we are willing to leave no stone unturned and seek Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, Jesus will never let us down. When Jesus is the object of your unwavering faith, your trusted source of deliverance, your wellspring of peace and joy, then no wall is too high, no crowd too thick—you will do whatever it takes to be with Him.
