Mark 6:53-56 (NLT)

Jesus Recognized

53 After they had crossed the lake, they landed at Gennesaret. They brought the boat to shore 54 and climbed out. The people recognized Jesus at once, 55 and they ran throughout the whole area, carrying sick people on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56 Wherever he went—in villages, cities, or the countryside—they brought the sick out to the marketplaces. They begged him to let the sick touch at least the fringe of his robe, and all who touched him were healed.

I'm so amazed by the faith and love of the people who got Jesus. They not only believed Him, but they didn't keep it for themselves. People were carrying others (friends, relatives, strangers probably) on mats to wherever He was. They didn't care who saw them, they didn't care about anything else but for what Jesus could provide for them.

I believe people are too concerned about what others think today. They'll talk Jesus with another believer but not with anyone else; at least not until they know their faith. They'll go to church every Sunday, and not be ashamed about it; but wont live anything they've learned.

We have to be eager for Jesus family. We have to seek Him, learn to recognize Him and let Him be recognized in us.

Prayer: Thank You Jesus for meeting us where we are at and taking us to places we could never even imagine. In Your Grace. Amen
