Matthew 20:29-34

Matthew 20:29-34

  1. Let us mark what strong faith may sometimes be found, where it might least have been expected.
  2. Let us mark what wisdom there is in using every opportunity for getting good for our souls.
  3. Let us mark the value of pains and perseverance in seeking Christ.
  4. Let us mark how gracious the Lord Jesus is to those who seek Him.

"It is those who "sit by the wayside" who are likely to be healed. Do we know the diseases of our souls? Do we feel any desire to see the great Physician? If we do we must not wait in idleness, saying, "If I am to be saved, I shall be saved." We must arise and go to the road where Jesus walks. Who can tell but He will soon pass by for the last time? Let us sit daily by the way-side."

Hi! My name is Shaun Martens, and I have the joy of serving the local body of Christ called First Baptist Church of Calgary as one of its pastors. I am married to my beautiful wife, Madelyn, and together we have 5 children, 3 of which we have the joy of parenting. I created this podcast to make the edifying writings of J.C. Ryle more accessible in a listening and devotional format.
If you are encouraged by this work or have any feedback or questions, I would love to hear from you! My email is smartens@firstbaptistcalgary.com.
