In this sermon, we’ll meet two people who were desperate and at the end of their ropes. We’ll meet two people who began to think that Jesus was late, that he was slow in keeping his promises. But, come and hear. Jesus is not late. He never is. He is not slow in keeping his promises, as some understand slowness. He is always right on time with the right help.
Can you see yourself in these two desperate characters? Maybe not today, but at another time, perhaps. Praying for help that never seems to come? Seeking solutions that never seem to find answers? Wondering to yourself, “Where is Jesus now?” Yet, in your desperation, you can be sure: Jesus is never late. He is always right on time with the right help just for you. We're looking at Mark 5:21-43.
