He Did What‪?‬

Now I don’t know what your background is, but I grew up going to church, well kind of – until I was four, there was no real talk of God in my house, but about the time I was four my mum started taking me and my older brothers to church.  Now I don’t have an awesome memory of back then, but I do remember on a couple of occasions listening to a bible story and going ‘awww that’s really cool’.  But the problem is by the time I was a teenager I had heard all the stories about Jesus and God, and I would read something that I should have said ‘awww that is cool’ and just be like ‘oh yeah, well he is God’.  I had lost my excitement, my awe.

 

The thing is, when we read about Jesus – we should be going ‘awww that’s cool’ on every page, because IT IS COOL.  It really is.  So the challenge to you is read Mark with me.  But read it with fresh eyes, read it as if you have never heard these stories before (maybe you haven’t), and hopefully each day you will be able to exclaim ‘He did what? Awww that’s cool!’
