Changed Lives

Mark 5:18 "As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed was imploring Him that he might accompany Him."

Do you ever remember an instance when God made it clear to you that the answer to your prayer request was no? Well, sometimes it's clear and sometimes it isn't so clear. In the event with the demon-possessed man, Jesus answer was clear. The man was begging Jesus to go with Him, but Jesus answer was no; "Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He had mercy on you." Sometimes it's difficult to understand God's ways but really the only thing we need to know is that His answer is for our good and for His Glory. I am sure the man was disappointed and maybe even fearful when he had to leave Jesus. However, I am convinced the disappointment did not last long and he probably spent the rest of his days sharing with others how Jesus had changed his life. Whatever God's answer is to our prayers, whether it is a yes or no, may we always look for ways to give God glory and tell others about how Jesus has changed our lives.

Lord God, thank You for Your amazing grace and love! Wherever it is You lead me, please cause me to have a heart to share Jesus.

Dedicated to Prayer,
