[:en]Thoughts from Mark 9[:]

[:en]In healing of a boy with an evil spirit, Jesus said:  “Everything is possible for him who believes” (v. 23)

If you have an illness needs healing, believe that Jesus can do the impossible.

The disciples asked Jesus why they could not drive the evil spirit out.  Jesus replied:  “This kind can come out only by prayer” (vs. 28-29)

Prayer is the secret to make miracles happen.

Who is the Greatest?  “If anyone want to be the first, he must be the very last and the servant of all” (v. 35) – Humility and service are the keys to become great,

Heavenly reward:   “Anyone who gives you a cup of water in my name because you belong to Christ will certainly not lose his reward” (v. 41)

“Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again?  Have salt in yourselves and be at peace with each other” (v. 50).  – Let us be a salt to all mankind.
