From Beginning To End - Quarter 4Sample

Jesus tells some stories that illustrate ways to handle God’s Word. One story emphasizes that we need to listen to it and do what it says. The next tells us we should be making it known to others. There are a few incidents where Jesus performs miracles with interesting twists. In one case, the fishermen are afraid of the water, but the teacher is not. In the next, the man who would be considered crazy accepts him and the “normal” people don’t. In the last, Jesus is delayed in His response, so it appears all is lost. In reality, it actually opens the door for an even greater miracle.

It’s hard to imagine there were people who rejected Jesus when faced with all these miracles! Even His own family rejected Him. Jesus’ response says obeying the Word of God matters more than family. What is standing between you and obeying God?
