Overcome with gratitude and joy, Bartimaeus then follows Jesus to Jerusalem. This means one of the very first things Bartimaeus saw with his eyes wide open was the triumphal entry, followed by the Crucifixion of the very man who’d just given him sight. For Bartimaeus, there was a cost to having his eyes opened. A cost I think he was more than willing to carry.

And yet it also holds one of the worst moments in discipleship history, when Peter rebukes Jesus for saying he will soon suffer and die. Though Peter’s confession was right it’s clear the disciples still didn’t understand everything going on. But did they need to? Friends, I found a lot of comfort in Mark 8:22-33.

What did James mean when he said “the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick.” Um, hello, but aren’t we all currently hiding in our homes due to a rapidly spreading illness? So, this week we’re taking a break from our study of Mark to talk about some very confusing verses in James.

“Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him…And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.” James 5:13-15

We're suspending our study of Mark this week to discuss the topic of thankfulness. I know, not always fun and yet we can't ignore that the Bible says to be thankful all the time. But what does that look like and why is God so set on thankfulness? Because the benefits far out way the difficulty of trying. In today's talk we discuss 15 specific benefits, but I know there's more. Because with Jesus, just as the sign in my living room says, there is always, always, always something to be thankful for. To see these benefits in list form just head on over to https://deeperdevos.orgNohttps://www.spreaker.com/user/deeperdevos/episode-60

A promise that began with Abraham before he even displayed an ounce of faith. A promise made with the intention of actually blessing all the families of the earth (Genesis 12:3), not just the Jews. A promise fulfilled through Christ, bringing us into the picture. Handing us the same responsibility the Jews had. Yet I fear we are just as prejudice as they were. We may say the gospel is for everyone but do we mean it? Hold onto your hats ladies and gents because we're about to dive a little deeper into Ephesians 2:11-18.

Caught in a web of unmet expectations maybe you’ve asked that very question. Wondering why YOU have to be the forgotten one. The only one in the world whose prayers apparently bounce off the ceiling hitting you square in the nose. It feels like that sometimes doesn’t it? It’s OK, we can be honest here. Life can feel lonely and unfair, giving us need for a little reminding every now and again. Which is exactly what Paul does for us today. We're in Ephesians 2:4-7 and I think you're going to love it.

But here's the thing. If it weren't for Christ, we'd be there too. Following the ways of this world. Because the reality is we all started the same way - dead in our trespasses and sins. It's how the Apostle Paul starts chapter two of Ephesians so we're wasting no time and diving in today too. And I'll tell you, it's absolutely a miracle story we need to be sharing.
