Day 5: The Obstacle That Became the Way

The People Who Carried Us · With One Another · May 9, 2026

Scripture
Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd... — Mark 2:4 (NIV)
Mark 2:4

The crowd was an obstacle. But the friends turned an obstacle into an opportunity. They did not blame the crowd. They did not give up and go home. They found another way. In your life, the obstacles you face might actually be the path God is calling you to take. The closed door might be redirecting you to the roof. Do not let obstacles stop you. Let them redirect you.

Prayer

God, when I face obstacles, help me not to give up. Show me the roof when the door is blocked.
