Mark 3:7-11
Jesus departed with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him; hearing all that he was doing, they came to him in great numbers from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and the region around Tyre and Sidon. He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him; for he had cured many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him. Whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and shouted, “You are the Son of God! But he sternly ordered them not to make him known.
 
How did Jesus draw such a big crowd?
He had no PA to help him speak loud
or Facebook or Twitter or mass mailing
and no techniques of good retailing.
 
A person was healed and told another
and that person went and told his brother.
The message was spread from one to one
and folks from all over came on the run.
 
With all the available tools today
For us to use God’s love to convey
the best is still words shared face to face
allowing God to move with great grace.
 
When we find something good we must tell
other people and sometimes we yell
because our excitement is contagious
and we invite because we’re courageous.

God bless for lessons we all need to adhere and when so many turned away seems a mystery. Yet there are many turning back in the realization the through God is eternal salvation...

Be always safe,
Karen

I wonder how, when and where that crowd lost the ability to ear...
