Good morning!

Today is a reflection day.
In Mark 6 we read how Jesus, when he comes to his own hometown of Nazareth, is met with rejection and unbelief.

And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. And he marveled because of their unbelief. (Mark 6:5-6)

Because of the doubt and skepticism of the people, Jesus “could do no mighty work.”  This does not say he was incapable – Jesus is God.  It says that belief and the power of the Lord go together, and where belief is weak, the power will be weak.  So, here’s a question:  Is there some area of my life where unbelief has limited the power of God?  May He strengthen our trust in Him, may He increase our belief, that He might do mighty works in and through us.
in Him, Mike
