A message from the series “Conversations With Jesus.” Jesus’ healing of the lame man by the pool of Bethesda was significant, not the least of which is because it’s one of the first times in John’s Gospel that He states unequivocally that He is equal with God.
It’s a theme that He would repeat throughout the entire book, and a theme that John would emphasize. It’s worth considering for our own lives as well.

CloseWe know that Jesus is powerful. After all, He raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, and "rebuked" nature. There's no doubt that He can do whatever He wants, any time He wants. But is it possible for Him to calm my soul? Our lives can be full of anxiety, fear, suspicion, danger, and sadness. We call on God to help us, but do we actually believe He can? Or, more specifically, how can we be know if He has? For that, we turn to the Psalms of Lament. These psalms make up nearly 1/3 of the book of Psalms, and they are very relatable when we find ourselves in tough times. They also teach us a lot about our own faith and how it practically intersects with the world around us.
