Reading three days worth again today.....
From the 26th:
The NT reading from Mark 8 had an account of the Disciples arguing with one another because they forgot to bring bread to eat. Jesus got after them asking them about the two miracles of feeding the 5,000 and the feeding of the 4,000 both times having 7 baskets of leftovers to pick up. I feel like I would not have been worried about food if I had viewed those miracles, but the truth is God has taken amazing care of me and my family over and over and over and when worry creeps in my response is really no different than the disciples, so perhaps I should not be so sure of myself with regard to my reaction, because I don't have a great track record in the trust department. I am so thankful that Christ is so loving and patient with me.
The account of Jesus healing the blind man using spit.... that is so cool that I can't even call it gross. Because truly, if He can use spit to heal blindness then the possibilities are endless of how He can use me. I am a sinner for sure, but I still think I'm a step above spit! Well it was Jesus spit, that makes it extra special you may say.... not just regular spit. Well I am His child I say, a redeemed sinner, not just a regular sinner.... that is a pretty special feeling.
From February 27 Mark 9: 24 "The father instantly cried out, 'I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief'" I can relate to this Father so well. My head and my faith do battle on occasion, and at those times my prayer is the same as this Father's . I do believe, help me overcome my unbelief!
Today's Proverb (10:19) Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut.
