Reading Diary A



This is one of my favorite stories in the bible because it shows what Jesus can do when you believe and it explains the miracles that happen through Jesus.   They traveled to the country of Gadarenes and a man who desperately needed help in all aspects of his life saw Jesus and ran to him.  The man was astonished and didn’t know how to react when he saw the Son of God.  The man’s name was Legion.   Jesus cleaned the unclean man and all the bad spirits inside of him left.  This is truly amazing in my opinion that something I can’t even completely grasp can happen through Jesus.  In another instance, a ruler from the synagogue saw Jesus and started worshipping him and begged him to save his daughter that was on her deathbed.  At the instant that Jesus laid his hands on her to heal her, all her problems with her blood were healed.  No amount of medicine can do these the things that Jesus did in these stories.



Jesus and the apostles came together to meet and talk.  A group of people saw Jesus and began to flock to him.  He loved that because all of those people wanted to learn and hear what he had to say.  The crazy part of this story is that you will almost always find Jesus in peculiar places.  In this specific story he is in a desert.  It is crazy to me how people know to find him and know that this is the Son of God.  Since they were in the desert, he send his disciples into the villages to gather up food to eat.  Although, there were so many people and not enough food left to feed all the people.  Somehow, Jesus worked miracles again this day and turned 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish into enough food to feed thousands of people that became full.  After his teachings and feedings were over, he sent them all to the mountain to pray.  Jesus cured the sick and healed the broke.  He showed miracles throughout this whole story.
