DAY 52, FEB. 21, 2010

Leviticus 11:1-12:8
When the Lord is describing the animals to eat or not to eat, He describes the pig. It this why Jewish people do not eat pig? Are a lot of these instructions health related as well?

Mark 5:21-43
When Jesus is on His way to heal Jarius' daughter the lady touches His robe and is healed from her bleeding. There are a few important notes from this passage. First , she had paid all of her money to those doctors and she was still not healed after 12 years and by just touching Jesus' robe she was healed. When Jesus tried to find out who it was, I assumed it was for scolding and it wasn't, it also wasn't to take the healing back. The important message is that faith coupled with Jesus can heal or do anything. "Daughter your faith has made you well, go in peace. Your suffering is over." Amen, and what a powerful message! When the message arrives that Jarius' daughter is dead, He assures Jaruis just to have faith. When Jesus resurrects the 12 year old girl, the strength again is overwhelming but more importantly is the amount of humbleness and the depth to Him. He tells all of them to not tell anyone of this miracle. He wants people to come to the Lord on the merits of His teachings, not miraculous events or that He is the Son of God.
Psalms 38:1-22
Earlier David chastises the sinner and calls them weak; we need to pray for our enemies and walk with God with a sense of humility.
