When He had come back to Capernaum several days afterward, it was heard that He was at home. And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room, not even near the door; and He was speaking the word to them. And they *came, bringing to Him a paralytic, carried by four men. Being unable to get to Him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above Him; and when they had dug an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying. And Jesus seeing their faith *said to the paralytic, "Son, your sins are forgiven."
Mark 2:1-5 (NASB)
How persistent are you in sharing your faith? What lengths will you go to, to share with someone what Jesus has done for them. I want you to notice what this passage says, Jesus saw the faith of the four men and because of that He forgave the sins of the paralytic.
We encounter people who are spiritually lost every day but some of them do not realize that they need Jesus. Others may know they need something but they don't know it is Jesus. We must remain persistent in our praying for them and sharing with them the goodness of Jesus and His gift of forgiveness. Be persistent till the Holy Spirit convicts them of their need and you may lead them into a saving relationship with Jesus.
