As more fires rage in L.A. there are stories of people having to flee at a moment’s notice; people being told they have only minutes to grab all of the things they cherish most. What would you grab in your house if you had to save something from the fire? That's probably an indicator of what you cherish most. We are going through a series on the Gospel of Mark, and Mark chapter 2 reveals to us what Jesus cherishes most; what He would snatch from a fire at a moment’s notice. Jesus cherishes people who are doubting and in need of mercy; that is what He would save from a fire. People are His treasured possessions.
