Today's Devotion: Mark 3:35 (New International Version) - Whoever does God's will is my brother and sister and mother."

In Mark 3:21, one reads that "When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, "He is out of his mind."

Today's Comments: According to the Fourfold Gospel on StudyLight.org, Jesus was talking about his spiritual family. In other words, if we are in him and he is in us, we are part of his spiritual family. Paul, in Romans 8:15 talks about our receiving the spirit of sonship. When we receive the Holy Spirit, we become family.

This is just to simply states my admiration to this devotion of the blogger himself...it certainly helps to grow Spiritually.

The Savior demands complete loyalty, the type of loyalty that is so strong, so unswerving, that every other attachment becomes subject to it.

The blogger himself emphasized that Jesus does not disown His family. He simply states the truth that Spiritual kinship with Him goes beyond physical relationship.
