Faith & Love: A One Year Bible Reading Plan - Part 3نموونە

Today’s scripture is Mark Chapter 8. In this passage:

1. There is the feeding of 4000 men in the crowd not counting the women and children which could have easily doubled or tripled the total number of people that needed food.

- The only food available consisted of 7 loaves of bread and a few small fish.

- Jesus gives thanks to God for these bits of food which get broken and are distributed to feed everyone in the crowd. After everyone is fed, there remained seven large baskets of leftover food.

2. A blind man is healed

- Jesus heals him through what may be considered an unconventional way to a human being, by spitting on the man’s eyes and laying hands on him.

It is clear that what we see with our physical eyes and say is impossible, God is more than able to use as material for a miracle. His ways, indeed, are not our ways!

What impossible situation have you been in or are you currently going through?

What words do I speak with my mouth when I find myself with little or nothing at all in a certain season of my life?

Are the words life-giving or not?

Are the words aligned with who God is in my life and what He is able to accomplish or not?

Do I see God coming through and working through some sorrowful or hurtful happenings in my community?

May you and I be reminded as we read this scripture today that our God is a miracle-working God even today.
