Read Matthew chapter 9. Jesus healed the paralytic, the bleeding woman, the blind, and the mute because of their faith. He raised a girl from the dead because of her father’s faith, and Matthew followed Jesus because of his faith. Yet Jesus is questioned for engaging unsavory characters and for not practicing traditional rituals such as fasting. What rituals and rules of society are keeping you from having a closer faith with Christ?
I am a follower of Jesus, husband, father, and pastor of Haymount United Methodist Church in Fayetteville, North Carolina, USA.
