Today we read Mark 6. We see in verse 4 that even Jesus’ own family and many other people in Nazareth, the town in which he spent much of His early life, do not accept Him as both true God and true man–the Messiah. Similarly, we too might experience that many of the people around us will reject Jesus. This is difficult for us. But Jesus Christ is always with us and gives us the strength to remain faithful to Him, even in the face of opposition.
