Mark 12:28
This man was quite interested in Jesus. He was used to hearing answers, and questions, that were not so well thought out as Jesus’s. He was inspired. He was challenged. He was encouraged.
His question is one of the few that Jesus faced that was actually meant to be legitimate. It doesn’t seem that this man was trying to trap Jesus. Instead he was actually trying to test his knowledge and see what Jesus knew.
Heavenly Father, we are surrounded by so many people who don’t even want to think about your truth. We are surrounded by lies and false assumptions. But, we know that you want us to have your truth, that you want us to know the truth. Thank you for the Lord Jesus, who is the truth himself. May we live in him always! We love you father. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
