Mark 9:24
...Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
There
comes a time in every parent's life when we are at our wit's end. We
don't know what to do, where to turn, or how things will work out.
This is especially true when our children are sick, and, we can't do
anything about it. This verse today is a cry for help from a parent.
First, he calls Jesus Lord. Second,
he says I believe. Finally,
this man says help thou mine unbelief.
First,
for Jesus to answer any of our prayers, we must recognize him as our
LORD. Jesus is not our “buddy”. He is our Saviour. Jesus is not
someone we can tell to do things. We need to plead and ask Jesus very
reverently. Second,
we must believe Jesus is who he said he is. Jesus was in the
beginning. Jesus created all there is, and, He is in control of all.
Finally, and here is
where I had a problem, this man said he believed, but, he asked for
help with his unbelief. How can he believe, and, need help with his
unbelief? Seemed like a contradiction at first. After prayer and
study, I feel I'm in the same situation. I believe, but, I still , at
times,have doubts.
Jesus can help you!
