The Character of Jesus – CONCERNED

Read Mark 6:45-52.

“For they all saw Him and were frightened. But immediately He spoke with them and said to the, ‘Take courage, it is I, do not be afraid.’” (v. 50)

Jesus saw the disciples fear, and immediately He spoke to them. He was concerned that they not be afraid.

I need to be sensitive to the fears and concerns of those around me—especially my family’s. When they are evident, I need to speak quickly to put them at ease.
