Extend God’s family
Verses：Mark 3:1 ~ 3:35
Key Verse：34-35. And looking around at those sitting in a circle around Him, He said, Behold, My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of God, this one is My brother and sister and mother.
Topic：Extend God’s family
Emphasis：Jesus restored a withered hand, cast out demons, and appointed the twelve; all of these extend God’s family. Therefore He said “if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom is not able to stand”, and ”whoever does the will of God, this one is My brother and sister and mother.”
Meditate：The gospel has two aspects. One is “God’s Kingdom” (Chapter 1, verses 14-15), the other one is “God’s family”. Please compare the two aspects of Gospel.
Prayer：Lord, I wish to do the will of God, and to be a relative in God’s family.
Hymn：1238 Never did I dream before
