Luke 8 captures much of the nature of Christ and His work including some of His best-known parables and most instructive miracles. These reveal His power over nature, demons, sickness and even death. The chapter begins, however, with recording the faithfulness of a group of women who had been healed of a variety of diseases, and even demon possession, who helped support both Jesus and his disciples “out of their private means,” v3. Some are named; some are not, but all were faithful.
Countless millions of people do what these ladies did; they support ministry “out of their own means.” When the true story is told, it will reveal that their faithfulness and ours will be included.
