Today's Reading
Leviticus. When people were healed from their skin diseases, it was critical to make sure they were really well. Shaving off all their hair made it possible to see outbreaks that otherwise might have been missed. Failure to discover and quarantine people with such diseases could have led to an epidemic.
As I read this passage, I am reminded of a problem several years ago. It turned out that the Yuma High School buildings had developed serious mold. It was big news at the time because it took millions to clean up. Why spend the money? Because of the illness it would have otherwise caused!
Mark today tells about an ordinary day in the life of Jesus. He fed multiplied thousands (5,000 men plus women and children), walked on the water and healed all the people who touched Him. God never asks us to do what He doesn't provide the resources to do. Are you ready to face needs the way Jesus did? I am finding it to be a life of desperate prayer!
Psalm. I really needed the encouragement of this Psalm today.
Proverbs. May all our words be as a life-giving fountain! I have recently grieved over God's people who need to be in unity. Walking in forgiveness is the call of Jesus.
I hope to hear from you today!
