February 20

today's reading: Mark 4:26- 5:20

Show and Tell

As we read today's scripture notice the healing of the demon possessed man named "Legion".
What an extraordinary sight that must have been!

2000 pigs rushing down a steep bank into the lake as the farmers watched helplessly.

I am sure they were astounded, maybe really angry, but amazed at the healing of this poor demonized soul. The one that many had no doubt feared and steered clear of, was able to speak and act normally!

......but the pigs! What about those pigs?

The farmers and locals came out to investigate and air their opinions... and begged Jesus to leave them alone!

I don't wonder! They were surely afraid of what might happen next had Jesus stayed around any longer!

But there stands the man....free FREE !!!! SO VERY FREE at long last, able to live a normal life!
Jesus command to him was to go to the people of the region.... show yourself to them as healed and delivered..... tell of this amazing thing that has happened to restore you to life!

Are you ready to share what God has done for you with everyone your family and friends?
You may never know the impact YOUR STORY has on them and on their friends and families.... but you can KNOW  that it will have an effect on them for good.

So Go! Show and Tell your story to everyone who will listen!
