When you read the Gospel of Mark it’s imperative that you listen for Jesus’ directives as to His spiritual Way. His guidance. His instructions direct you how to best live for Him. The instructional road map helps you to not encounter trouble.
With Him showing you the Way, the road that He needs you on will be a discovery. Jesus says, “Everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.” (Matthew 7:24) He goes on to say that terrible weather came and afterwards the home was still standing because of the foundation.
Our foundation is hearing Jesus words and acting on them.
Isn’t it amazing that Jesus words can keep us from peril?? For, His words keep us away from the spiritual sumideros (Spanish for sinks, like quick sand pits). In the desert of Santa Fe, New Mexico, the sumideros have a dried baked top yet underneath is a sinkhole that both men and animals have fallen into and died. If these men and animals had had a path so as to avoid the sumideros, they would have never stepped into these dangerous areas of the desert.
Jesus has walked a path for us. That’s why it’s vitally important to read and talk with others about His words in the Bible. Would you like to study Mark together in order to keep you diligent to learn and for your spiritual guidance? Let me know.
