DAY 56, FEB. 25, 2010

Leviticus 16:29-18:30
Again these passages are filled with expicit instructions about different things and areas. One of the big issues in this area is about several relationships and who to have these relationships with. For the first time in the Bible, homosexuality is discussed and banned from happening by the Lord. The Lord is also very clear in who not to have sex with and he lays out real clearly who those people or animals are.

Mark 7:24-8:10
This first passage even shows that Jesus was capable of changing His mind or opinion and practiced great wisdom. In dealing with the women who's daughter is possessed, He listens to her and because of her answer He changes His mind and heals her daughter right away. After Jesus healed the deaf person with the speech impediment, He again asked for the people not to tell anyone and agian the more He did this the more they talked. This is the second time in a short period of time that Jesus feeds a lot of people (4000+ families) with only a few loaves of bread and a few fish, showing that His miracles are everywhere and about everything. If you are sick, He will heal; if you are hungry, He will feed; if you are deaf, He will let you hear. That is not neccessarily literal, but He has let me hear His words and His will.
