Vote

Go and vote.....vote, as an act of love for your fellow man!

11-4-2014      Mark 8:13-21
S.       13 And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side. 14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf. 15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod. 16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread. 17 And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened? 18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember? 19 When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve. 20 And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven. 21 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
O.      The disciples are having trouble remembering the miracles of Jesus. Jesus reminds them of his feeding so many with so little food. He leads them to the spiritual lesson that they seem to be missing.
A.      Every act of God has a spiritual message to be learned. I must seek out the spiritual, the holy, and the divine and then apply these lessons into my life.

P.       Father God; thank you for the lessons you are teaching me. Give me wisdom to apply these lessons. Amen.
