FOREVER CHANGED

Today I want to put some food out for thought about Jesus and the good he did.  I remember as a child always learning that "Jesus went about doing good."  

I start today with thoughts of Jesus who has been on earth doing all these miracles.  There's the Pharisees and the Sadducees who are surely non-believers and I find them almost jealous of Jesus' "popularity".  This kind of reminds me of the enemy when the Lord's work is being done and the Lord is being praised but that's another sermon for another day.

My thoughts have gone today to those to whom HE became special.  

I think of Mary who had those devils cast out.  Her life was changed.

How about the young man in the graveyard who was possessed?  Jesus came by and his life was forever changed.

Then there's the blind guy who was blind since birth but Jesus restored his sight.  And if one is blind since birth, think about it.  That person doesn't know what sight even looks like.  Can you imagine?  Then when he was questioned, he said, "I don't know how he did it but I do know that I was blind and now I SEE!"   Forever changed.

How about the lame man who was told to take up his bed and walk?   He picked up that bed and took off walking...maybe he even ran.  Life changed.

How about Jarius whose precious daughter was dead but now lives?  She's back with him at the supper table.   Life changed.

How about the hungry 5000 men not counting women and children who were fed until their stomachs were packed full from five loaves and two small fishes?  And there were leftovers!  Life changing food for the body and the soul.

And how about sweet Mary, the mother of Jesus, who always knew He was to be special?  Bet she pondered in her heart all those years.   Forever changed.

So many more lives witnessing miracles and life changing events that seemed unbelievable.  Forever changed.

How about you?  Have you been forever changed by Jesus?  I surely have as a young girl when I asked HIM into my heart and believed on HIM as my Lord and Savior.  Now 58 years later, HE is still that and so much more to me!

Yes, I am forever changed!
