Mark 6.1-29-Jesus sends the disciples to heal people and tell them to
turn to God
2 Samuel 15-Absalom wins the hearts of the people and David leaves
Jerusalem- but God rescues
Daniel 9-Daniel prays for the people- confessing sins- God sends
Gabriel to help Daniel understand
Psalm 89.1-4,15-18-Declare God’s love and rejoice in it
Daniel 1.3-17-God gave knowledge and sill in every aspect of
literature and wisdom to Daniel and his friends
Psalm 1- Meditate on God – day and night
Incident Response- that’s where I saw God yesterday- in Atlanta- these
what appeared to be emergency response vehicles- ambulances—but it
said Incident Response on the side of them- traffic was heavy- six
lanes on each side of the interstate- if a car broke down- it caused
an “incident”—these vehicles would move about through traffic – sirens
and lights and all- I saw one guy get out and put gas in a car that
was broken down- did they have medical people on board- I don’t know-
but they were responding to an “incident”—it reminds me of how Jesus
sends out his disciples- to the people – to heal – to tell them to
turn to God- to react to an “incident” in the life of the people God
loves- God rescued David many times- even with his own son trying to
take over as King of Israel- I can see someone coming to David in one
of those Incident Response vehicles- to save David – to rescue him-
Daniel in the same way could be the driver of an Incident Response
vehicle- he gets out of the vehicle and goes to the party in trouble
and prays for them- an angel comes a little later to help us
understand what is going on- why do we have the incident in the first
place?—I guess it helps us to trust God- it helps us depend on God-
only God can save- and with that love shown from God and even through
other people – we find a joy- a happiness- we are God’s loved children-
he will respond to our incidents- he will give us the gifts we need
to endure- he will give us what we need to see the hope we have in
him – that hope of the Spirit poured into our hearts- and we will
think about God day and night- yea – yesterday- many people needed the
help of the Incident Response vehicles- I think God was there inside
those vehicles- ready and willing at all times to put on the siren-
run the lights – arrive- get out and respond to the “incidents” of
everyday life- he was there to work through some people and show the
love he has for all his children – Thanks be to God!
Prayer- Lord- use me today to drive that vehicle- to be the one you
work your love through – to show your love and to respond to the
incidents as you would have me respond- and if I need someone- which I
always will- please send your holy angels in that Incident Response
vehicle to help me- to set me straight and back on path—and to fill me
with the joy and love of your Spirit. – Amen
