In Mark 2, four friends are frantically determined to get their paralyzed friend to Jesus. They will do anything it takes to get him to Jesus. The house Jesus is teaching and healing in is crowded with standing room only so they climb to the roof and literally - unroof the roof! They are displaying active, no matter what, faith in action. Jesus didn't just heal the man, He also cleansed him of his sins. He healed him inside and out. The faithful men joyfully ran off celebrating and praising Jesus, leaving the destroyed house behind. They didn't let difficulties discourage them or get in their way. They kept pursuing Jesus. Keep encouraging your friends. Let your friends encourage you when you need it. Keep pointing people to Jesus and keep clinging to Him, heart and soul, with all your guts and every last exhale. Keep unroofing the roof for Jesus.
