Thought For Today

The sick man (by the pool of Bethzatha) answered Him (Jesus) ”Sir I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled and while I am going another steps down before me.” John 5:7

Lord we hear the frustration of the sick man when reading John’s words. How discouraging it must have been to wait for the waters to churn only to have someone go in front and miss the healing. This man never gave up. He waiting and hoped. Day by day his hopes had been dashed. It never stopped him. He came back the next day to try again.

Thank You Lord for persistence.

Thank You for the joy You bring as we stay close to you.

Thank You for new insights and understanding.

Thank You for the ability to stay strong and wait.

With You all things are possible and I thank You for that great gift Lord.

Thank You Lord.
