Finding Your Voice: Bartimaeus' Lesson on Asking for Help

What the scriptures are saying is god wants you to name out loud what it is that you want him to do.
What would you do if you had the chance to ask Jesus for anything? In this episode of 'Echoes of Grace: Stories of Redemption and Renewal', Paul Arthur brings to life the story of Bartimaeus from Mark 10:46. Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, doesn't let the crowd's attempts to silence him stop him from calling out to Jesus for mercy. His persistence pays off, teaching us all about the power of vocalizing our needs and desires.
But this episode isn't just about asking for help; it's also a heartfelt exploration of compassion and empathy. Paul reminds us that we can sometimes be so caught up in our own lives that we overlook the needs of others. He encourages listeners to think about what they would ask Jesus if they had the chance, emphasizing the importance of having faith and naming what we want, even if it seems obvious.
Whether you're struggling with addiction, trying to support a loved one, or simply looking for a deeper spiritual connection, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration. Tune in for a powerful discussion that might just change the way you think about asking for help.
