June 21st People reflection

Mark 5.21-43-A woman healed by Jesus- with a touch and faith and Jesus healing power

2 Samuel 14-God doesn’t take our lives, Instead, he figures out ways of bringing us back when we run away

Daniel 8-A vision and an angel to interpret

Psalm 141-I call upon you, O LORD; come quickly to me; give ear to my voice when I call to you.

Hebrews 10.1-14-Christ was offered a single time for sins- now we wait and serve in love

Psalm 50-Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.

God’s voice yesterday came through some shark’s teeth and some conversation and prayer. Just how do you see those teeth on the beach? Once you learn to recognize them – you will see them all over the place. I think this morning of the lady reaching to touch Jesus cloak—A picture I saw where this woman was on the ground reaching up to touch his cloak for healing. It was crowded—just think of the focus she must have had on Jesus- to pick his cloak alone out of the crowd of cloaks that surely must have been present. Kinda like shark’s teeth- I suppose once you learn to recognize Jesus – you just might see him all over the place—Like the woman with faith that a touch of Jesus cloak would bring healing- she recognized Jesus healing power- his saving grace and I suppose that cloak was easy for her to recognize- she could see it real easy. A friend about to have surgery - a Lord that heals- some faith and a cloak- Somehow God figures out a way to bring us back -–we call out to God in prayer and he will hear—his hearing is so great that he sent his Son – once and for all our sin- to die for us – to give life – to give hope – to help us endure- to build our character- to pour his Spirit into our hearts- yea – call out- scream if needed- call on Him in the day of trouble- Only God can deliver- and I will glorify him. Yesterday – some shark’s teeth- a friend who is having surgery- I must trust God – focus and be able to recognize Him—and God will be seen all over the place- real easy – even in the pain- even in the recovery – even in the struggle- even in the healing that brings life. – Thanks be to God!

Prayer- Lord today be with my friend in surgery – send your healing power – the touch of love in so many people – be with the family – the comfort and understanding – be with all those who will let your healing power work through them today- let your healing grace radiate throughout that hospital to all this day – fill that place with your Spirit- pour out you love into the hearts of all in that room and in that hospital- make it a powerful moment and show your glory for all to see and feel. Let those shark’s teeth show up everywhere this day. -- Amen
