Watch Out for Bad Bread!
The followers had only one loaf of bread with them in the
boat. They forgot to bring more bread. Jesus warned them, "Be
careful! Guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the
yeast of Herod. "
-- Mark 8:14-15 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Don't you just love the way Jesus helps his disciples move from
temporal concerns and physical needs to spiritual and eternal issues?
How often do we get so bogged down in the physical details that we lose
sight of spiritual truths? Let's ask Jesus to take us deeper into what
is truly life, what is genuine spirituality. Let's not settle for
worrying about temporal "stuff" God has already promised to take care
of for us!
TODAY'S PRAYER:
O God, please forgive me. I confess that I sometimes get anxious about
things that don't really matter. I sometimes get hung up on concerns
that are not spiritual matters. Help me see the issues, needs, and
concerns that are truly important. Help me focus on them! In Jesus'
name. Amen.
