paralytic man back home. That is the logic that anyone in that situation
could use. However these youth burned with love for the suffering man,
and so did not give up so easily; our heroes were not embarrassed or
overpowered. Their love was accompanied by strong faith and certainty
that would not allow them to abandon the battle. They lifted their gaze
higher than their compatriots: from the roof! they said- and without
further consideration they tied strong ropes to the bed and climbed up.
They opened the roof and carefully lowered the bed with the paralytic
man down in front of Christ. The Evangelist Luke writes that: they
went up on the housetop and let him down with his bed through the tiling
into the midst before Jesus (Luke 5:19)
No human reaction could stop their God-pleasing actions. No obstacle
that they encountered was large enough to curb their enthusiasm. And
the very idea that they had undertaken such an important endeavour, did
not allow them to have the slightest doubt. They were resolute and
would not stop until they saw their efforts bear fruit and their mission
completed successfully. The Lord saw their faith and granted the
paralytic man healing of not only his body but also his soul from suffering.
Beloved brethren, the emphatic love of these four people cannot leave us
indifferent and unmoved. This love causes revolution in the hearts of
people that have it. It awakens the emotions and overturns the habits of

express love and compassion for others, it is difficult for us to
comprehend this type of love. You see love is not a barren emotion; it
does not just express sympathy toward the hurt person, who would
prefer to see actions. True love has great power, it becomes a great
bulldozer that flattens and uproots every obstacle that blocks our path.
Modern society has filled with sensitive people who cannot bear to see
children crying and have stopped disciplining them. They cannot bear to
see parents suffering bedridden with pain and remove them before their
time. They are compassionate to the thieves and remove items from their
yard that could harm them. Their sensitivity reaches a climax when
because someone has forgotten to feed their dog they have to pay a fine.
They have become insensitive to the salvation of the souls of their
neighbour, brother or even themselves. They become completely
