Thirst // Pick Up Your Mat // John 5:1-15

In John 5, Jesus encounters a man paralyzed for 38 years and asks him a profound question: "Do you want to get well?" It seems obvious, but sometimes we get so comfortable in our brokenness that we stop believing change is possible. We blame others, make excuses, or keep our struggles hidden in shame. Jesus doesn't just heal this man physically—He offers something greater: freedom from the mat itself. He tells him to pick it up and walk, taking dominion over what once controlled him. The scars of our past pain can become testimonies of present healing when we stop hiding them and start walking in the freedom Christ offers. What mat are you stuck on? What brokenness keeps you confined? Stop waiting by the pool hoping for change. Look up to Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. He's offering you healing—not just for your circumstances, but for your soul.
