OVERWHELMED?

“People were coming and going in great numbers, making it impossible for them to so much as eat.” –Mark 6:31 Jesus and His apostles were overwhelmed by the demands made of them. Jesus tried to deal with the problem by going off with His apostles in a boat to a deserted place (Mk 6:32). However, thousands of people met Jesus on the other side of the lake, and Jesus was faced with the humanly impossible task of feeding thousands of people in the desert. When the demands made on you seem overwhelming and when your attempts to deal with your...

MARRIAGE MATTERS

“Let marriage be honored in every way and the marriage bed be kept undefiled.” –Hebrews 13:4 When God revealed to the world His Ten Commandments, he set aside two of them to teach the human race about His thoughts on marriage: “You shall not commit adultery” (Ex 20:14). “You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife” or husband (Ex 20:17). St. Thomas More and St. John the Baptist died as martyrs making a stand for God’s definition of marriage. Surely many others have suffered greatly over the centuries as well for the sake of God’s plan for marriage. Sadly, numerous people...

A DUST RAG

“If any place will not receive you or hear you, shake its dust from your feet in testimony against them as you leave.” –Mark 6:11 “The love of Christ impels us” (2 Cor 5:14) to share the Good News of Jesus. Some people accept Him while others reject Him. When Jesus is rejected by those with whom we share the Gospel, we tend to take it personally. We feel rejected, disrespected, and unjustly treated. We must then shake off this grime and dirt of rejection, or we will become encrusted with bitterness. We shake off the dust by accepting the...

DEEP-SEA DUMPING

“The herd of about two thousand [swine] went rushing down the bluff into the lake, where they began to drown.” –Mark 5:13 Jesus takes away the sins of the world (Jn 1:29). When He takes them away, He “will cast into the depths of the sea all our sins” (Mi 7:19). Jesus takes away your sins and dumps them into the ocean.Those sins fall thousands of feet to the depths of the sea, to remain there forever. No one can retrieve them. They are gone forever, and you are free. In case you should even want to get those sins...

SIMPLY LOVE

“There are in the end three things that last: faith, hope, and love, and the greatest of these is love.” –1 Corinthians 13:13 Life is simple. The meaning of life is love, for God is Love (1 Jn 4:16). All we have to do is to love God with all our hearts (Dt 6:5), love ourselves (Mt 22:39), and love our neighbors (Mt 22:39). God is easy to love sometimes (see Lk 4:22). But then He speaks the truth in love (see Eph 4:15), and we desire to throw Him over a cliff (Lk 4:29-30). Moreover, we live in the...
