Monday, November 21 (Taken by the hand) — Jesus took a boy by the hand and he got up. That’s a picture of what’s intended for all of us.
Tuesday, November 22 (If you don’t understand, don’t be afraid to ask) — There were times when the early disciples didn’t understand what Jesus said but they were afraid to ask. That’s not to be a model for us.
Wednesday, November 23 (Thinking about thanksgiving — Returning to the source) — Ten lepers were healed, but only one thanked Jesus. Am I like the nine or the one?
Thursday, November 24 (Don’t go away — draw near) — Some of the early disciples stopped following Jesus when the cost of discipleship got too high. How about us?
Friday, November 25 (Easily distracted?) — Jesus set His face to go to Jerusalem to finish what His Father had sent Him to do. He was not distracted. Are we?
