Opportunism

Mark 2:1-2

  • Jesus was always ready to make the most of an opportunity because he was always eager to be productive.
  • He did not dread his work and he didn’t procrastinate
  • He was not content to merely existing.
  • To Jesus, life itself was an opportunity, so every event in life was a “once in a lifetime opportunity”
  • If today was your last day, would you be pleased with how you lived it?

Commendation

Mark 2:3-5

  • Jesus notices and rewarded the aggressive faith of these men. He was not offended

Forgiveness

  • The guilt of sin can have a crippling or debilitating effect on even our physical bodies
  • Spiritual and physical health are linked together
