Scripture: Mark chapter 1
Observation: Jesus' ministry begins. Mark shows that Jesus didn't waste any time. There was a message that needed to be spread, and He went right to work. He taught, He healed, He traveled. His ministry was one of action, not just words.
Application: We are all called to be ministers, and to be involved in ministry. But is that ministry in action? Who am I reaching out to, and how? Do I have time to waste? No - time is of the essence. The message needs to be spread.
Prayer: Father, Your Word tells me the time is near. This world will not continue much longer. Jesus is coming soon - how do I proclaim this to everyone? Is it enough to just live a Christian life and hope someone will want to imitate me? Please show me how to spread the Gospel. Take away any fear or shyness, and give me words to speak Your truth to everyone I come in contact with. Help me be a light for Your word. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
