Mark 3:14 New International Version (NIV)
14 He appointed twelve that they might be with him
and that he might send them out to preach
While there are many intriguing and fascinating thoughts in
this short sentence, the one phrase that touches my heart is this one:
"... that they might be with him ...." This reminds me of that great
passage in Acts 4:13: "[T]hey recognized that they had been with
Jesus." Now I know that we can't "be with" Jesus in the same way
the twelve apostles were. But, we do have the four Gospels that tell his story.
When was the last time you sat down and read one straight through? When was the
last time you read a Gospel and asked Jesus to make himself and his will known
you? Why not spend some time being with Jesus this week!
Thought for today:
What do I really know about God? Do I devote time to get to know Him?
