Luke 5:17-19
KJV 17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them. 18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him. 19 And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.

Luke 5:17-19
5:17 And it happened on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the Law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.
5:18 Then behold, men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him.
5:19 And when they could not find how they might bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling into the midst before Jesus.
These are my thoughts, please share yours.
17 Teachers were coming to hear Him teach. People were coming to be healed. His fame was becoming known and the Holy Land. By us receiving His teachings as Truth and accepting Him He heals us of the thing we need healed of most sin.
18 This man had to trust in these men to be brought to Jesus. Others often times as brought by others to Jesus are we willing to bring them to Him. We need to have a desire to want to be in the present of Jesus and go to Him when we have need but we should allow help bring others to Him.
19 They did whatever they needed to do to make sure they got him to Jesus do we stop when challenge comes or do we do all we can do to get them to Jesus?
