free bulletin articlesBible Passage: Mark 1:21-35

Work is hard sometimes, one may even say it is unbearable. We have a savior that can identify with us in so many ways. He was hungry. He was thirsty. He was angry. He was tempted. He had a pretty demanding job at times. His occupation of being “Savior of the World” led to his healing of many.

In our passage today, Jesus began teaching in the synagogue. He healed a man afterward. He then later healed Simon Peter’s mother-in-law at her house. That evening, he wasn’t able to rest at the five o’clock whistle. He continued to work. For the whole town gathered at Peter’s house. He healed many more and drove out demons.

We think sometimes that Jesus might not know how we feel after a hard day of work. Our bosses ask us to do the miraculous sometimes, but at least we don’t have to drive out demons. Okay, you can now insert your joke about your boss who acts like a demon on occasion.

I want all of us to see a parallel between the work of Jesus and our job duties. Early the next morning (Mark 1:35), Jesus got up and went to a solitary place to pray. Jesus prayed after his exhausting day of work. There are many other times when Jesus went off to pray. Jesus needed time alone with his heavenly Father. We do too. We cannot tackle our jobs alone, whether that job is a peanut butter sandwich inspector, traveling salesman, or 11th grade student. Many of us think we can handle our jobs all by ourselves. Many of us think we don’t need God’s help. Many of us refuse to take time out of our day to plead to God for help…or to praise him for helping us through a tough day. I’ve been guilty of this. I vow to do better… will you make that same vow?
