Morning: Psalms 1, 2, 3; Micah 7:1-7; Acts 26:1-23
Evening: Psalm 4, 7; Luke 8:26-39
Why learn about Jesus? After Jesus heals a man possessed by demons, the man wants to follow Jesus. It is easier to leave town with Jesus than to live - no longer possessed, but whole - in the very community that experienced his former wild behaviour. But Jesus sends him home to tell his family how much God has done for him. He does go home and, instead, tells them how much Jesus has done for him. Notice how, for the author of Luke’s Gospel, a new, radical possibility has emerged ... Look at Jesus: see God.
