As most of you would know, we are journalling together as a church. I will confess that even though this has been happening since the first of January, tonight was actually the first time that I journaled. I know, I know, slack right? :) But i'm so proud, I thought I'd share my entry with everyone. So, see below:
S:- Matthew 8:32-34: 32 “All right, go!” Jesus commanded them. So the demons came out of the men and entered the pigs, and the whole herd plunged down the steep hillside into the lake and drowned in the water.
33 The herdsmen fled to the nearby town, telling everyone what happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 Then the entire town came out to meet Jesus, but they begged him to go away and leave them alone.
O:- After being told of the Miracle the townspeople were angry with Jesus. they wanted nothing to do with him. all they could think of was the pigs Jesus indirectly caused to run off the cliff. Because of this they asked him to leave.
A:- I wonder how often I miss the miracle that has happened or is about to happen, simply because i can't see past the cost that is required. How frequently am I blinded by the pigs, and completely miss the men who's lives has just been changed forever?
P:- Dear God, help me to always see your works in every situation. make them plain to me. Don't let me be distracted by the cost, or the inconvenience. Let me instead see your hand in all things.
