Mark 9:1-29
“…But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.” And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe; help my unbelief!”
Mark 9:22b-24
Who among us cannot relate to this father’s plea? We probably all identify more easily with his unbelief than with his belief. But that’s crazy, because God has given us every reason for it to be the other way around.
He Who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him graciously give us all things?
Romans 8:32
Jesus is the ultimate expression of God’s great love for us, so why do we persist in unbelief?
Lord, we believe; help our unbelief!
