Isaiah 35:1-10; Psalm 84 (85):9-14; Luke 5:17-26

Community of faith

A small community of faith makes a context for healing. The man who is paralysed is not only marginalised by his illness, but his way to Jesus is blocked by crowds. Those moved by their faith to help him take extraordinary steps: climb up on the roof, remove tiles and lower the man down to Jesus. Jesus ‘saw their faith’. Moved by faith, what steps can I take to bring another to Jesus? What ‘tiles’ do I need to remove?
