What The World Needs


"Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. 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 4:1 (NIV)

Jesus lived in a time without social media, radio, TV, or advertising of any kind.  People came to Jesus because he had what they needed.  He had the words of life and truth.

He didn't have to use any tactics to get them to come, he was just himself.

Jesus, the truth and life.

I read this and I had to pause.

Today I just want to ponder one simple thought.

Do we truly understand that we have what the world needs?
