September 1 – Mark 4:1, 4:21

Mark 4:1
The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge.

Mark 4:21
Do you bring in a lamp to put it under a bowl or a bed? Instead, don’t you put it on its stand?

When Jesus’ teachings brought in a crowd that was overwhelming, Jesus didn’t retreat. Instead, he found a place where his words could reach them all. I wonder… did the boat also help protect Jesus? When we’re asked to give more than we think we can handle, could God help us find a way to meet needs and to protect ourselves, all in the same method?

Today’s three-by-five devotional brought to you from Debbie. Mom will be back soon!
