 Healing Crowds
29 Departing from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee, and after
going up on the mountain, He was sitting there.

30 And large crowds came to Him bringing with them those who were
limping, had impaired limbs, were blind, or were unable to speak,
and many others, and they laid them down at His feet; and He
healed them.

31 So the crowd was astonished as they saw those who were unable to
speak talking, those with impaired limbs restored, those who were
limping walking around, and those who were blind seeing; and they
glorified the God of Israel.

Four Thousand Men Fed
32 Now Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I feel
compassion for the people, because they have remained with Me
now for three days and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to
send them away hungry, for they might faint on the way.”

33 The disciples *said to Him, “Where would we get so many loaves in this desolate place to satisfy such a large crowd?”

34 And Jesus *said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

35 And He directed the people to sit down on the ground;

36 and He took the seven loaves and the fish; and after giving thanks,
He broke them and started giving them to the disciples, and the
disciples gave them to the crowds.

37 And they all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, seven large baskets full.

38 And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and
children.

Sharing a picture I took Friday evening as Rusty and I were heading  home. I found the sunset interesting, like a jagged little rhythm, almost like an EKG monitor.😊 ~Mindy

Old churches must not simply stand as monuments to the past but as spiritual grandparents that have invested in the future by passing on their life to others and releasing their offspring to form new congregations. ~ unknown
