Daily Thoughts 1-29-2018 Mark 5:18-19

"As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed pleaded to remain with him. But he would not permit him but told him instead, "Go home to your family and announce to them all that the Lord in his pity has done for you." ‭‭Mark‬ ‭5:18-19‬

I wonder how this mans family was transformed by his conversion?  Jesus works through each of us to transform those around us.  This man was possessed by a legion of demons yet he went to Jesus to be saved, he knew Jesus was the answer.   How many of us turn to Jesus when we need help and are seeking the answer.  This man was a mess, chains couldn't restrain him, I doubt his family wanted the chaos around.   Now with Jesus at the center, I imagine a man at peace, he has possession of his faculties.  God transforms each of us so we may glorify Him and share with those around us what great things God has done.  Be a living example of the saving power of God and help transform your world.  You need help, go to Jesus.  

Dear Heavenly Father, I need help each day I wake up, I am nothing without you.  I am thankful You are with me and You teach me through Your Holy Spirit.  Transform my life so I may show and tell others what great things You have done.   Bless my friends and family Lord with peace, patience and a sense of purpose.  Give them Joy in knowing they are not alone and that You are with them.  Open us up to the greatness of Your grace and transform the world around us.  I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.   

Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.   





Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
