“Do Whatcha Gotta Do…”
In the Bible, many people tried to get to Jesus, and some did. One man, Zacchaeus, climbed up a tree to get to see Jesus! Peter walked on the water to get to Jesus! The woman with the issue of blood, got down and crawled through the crowds, so she could “touch the hem of His garment.” In Mark 2:4, a man sick with palsy needed Jesus. His friends had carried him, probably a long way, but they could not even get inside the house where Jesus was because of the crowd. What did they do? “And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.”

What a story! You must do “whatcha gotta do” to get to Jesus, no matter what others say, “climb that tree, break up the roof, or walk on water, if you have to!” Your faith will get you to Him! Sherry
