In Luke
chapter nine, Jesus sends out the disciples to all the lands to preach the Kingdom
of God and to heal the sick. Upon their return we hear of all the amazing
things that they were able to do by the authority and power of Jesus. The lame
walked and the blind were able to see!
A few verses
later when Jesus is speaking to the masses and dinnertime is approaching, the
disciples point out that the people are hungry and should be sent home so that
they may eat. Jesus response was, "You feed them." You would suspect
that after the spiritual high that the disciples were coming from that they
would be all about this, but they weren't. In fact they stood around confused. In
their search they return with a few loves and some fish. Most of us know then
that Jesus went on to bless and feed EVERY PERSON THERE!
But here is
what I want to draw your attention to. There are things that we experience
where God does something utterly amazing in our lives or loved ones, and then
within days, even hours we are quick to forget about that which he has done for
us. It happened with the disciples, and it happens with us. We can't forget
abut the things that God has promised and done for us. We walk as if we have
never seen or heard.
Let us walk with
a holy confidence in the God that we serve!
May the awe and
wonder of God serve as a constant reminder of the things God has done in your
life!
