Invisible

You are not invisible to Jesus.

“Have you ever felt invisible?” Robbie Bryan, a pastor at Reno Christian Fellowship, asked students at Damonte Ranch High School. He recalled a middle-school birthday party when only one friend showed up, a moment that taught him what it feels like to be overlooked.

Robbie opened Mark 5:21–34, where a woman who had suffered for twelve years reached out to Jesus and was healed. Jesus stopped to acknowledge her, calling her “Daughter.” She was not invisible to Him. Robbie also remembered the lasting encouragement of a youth leader who remembered his name a year after meeting him.

The challenge for students was both comforting and practical: Jesus sees us, and we can learn to see others. Please pray that students at Damonte Ranch would come to know Christ and notice those who feel forgotten.
