Mark 3:1–6

Doing right is hard enough. Doing right while critics scrutinize your every move takes real courage. A man with a withered hand stood in the synagogue as the Pharisees watched, waiting to pounce if Jesus healed on the Sabbath. He healed him anyway.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll turns to Mark 3:1–6, contrasting Jesus’ warm compassion with the Pharisees’ cold indifference and underscoring the call to show mercy to the “least of these,” those who cannot care for themselves.

Open your eyes to the needs around you. Practice the mercy of Jesus and never let hard-hearted critics keep you from doing what is right!
