This thread could easily fit in Health & Aging or in Relationships. But since it is tied to my sermon prep for this week I chose R&F.
Does the Squeaky Wheel always get the grease? Does it matter how loud it squeaks? Where or when it squeaks?
This week I am working with the healing of Blind Bartimaeus in Mark 10:46-56. Bartimaeus is told to sit down and be quiet, to not make a scene. He does not, Jesus hears him, and he is healed. Would Jesus have even known of the need/want if Bartimaeus had not made noise?
How many times do we not get the help or assistance we want/need because we do not want to be a bother and so we don't ask? How many squeaky wheels do we choose to ignore in our journey through life?
WHer is God in the squeakiness of the world?
My early thoughts for the week are here.
