It is needed. You are right. Too many are thrill seekers, and miss the point. I think about John 6. People enjoyed the miracles and free lunch but in John 6:66 they left Jesus when He challenged them. They were enjoying the show, but missed the love, grace, healing and purpose of what Jesus was doing. Another thing you illustrated is the walk. What people don't realized is that for every miracle in the Bible, there were many "normal" days. Miracles do happen, and praise God when they do. However, the "walk," the depth of our walk with the Lord and community and care for one another should be more of our focus. thanks Mike Barres \o/ Praise Him www.cornerstoneandrews.org www.mikebarres.info Thanks for your devotion today.
