The Doctor's Mother Won't Do 

Jane was a Marian devotee. She believed that whatever the Lord Jesus could do, Mary could also do it just as effectively, being the mother of the Lord Jesus Christ. Her friend who read the Bible insisted "No! It's only the Lord Jesus Christ! He alone is the Savior!" But nothing could persuade Jane. 

One day Jane became ill. She called up her friend who worked as the doctor's secretary to arrange an appointment for her. But the doctor was out for several weeks.

Her friend, snatching the opportunity said: "The doctor is not in but we can call her mother." 

"Is she a doctor?" Jane asked.

"Nope, but she's his mother. The doctor's mother will do. She is highly respectable and honorable" her friend replied.

"No! No matter how highly respectable and honorable she is if she's not a doctor..."Jane exclaimed but then paused...And then she got it.

My friend, you see, it has to be Doctor Jesus. Put your faith in Him and what He did on the cross and be made well.
