Ebanghelyo subong nga Adlaw (Marcos 6:53-56)
Nagtabok sila sa linaw kag nagdungka sa Genesaret sa diin ginpundo nila ang sakayan.
Sang pagtakas nila, sa gilayon nakilala sang mga tawo si Jesus.
Gani ang mga tawo sa nagkadto sa palibot nga mga duog kag gindala nila sa iya ang mga masakiton nga nayayungan sa ila mga hiligdaan sa bisan diin nga duog nga mabatian nila nga didto si Jesus.
Kag bisan sa diin siya magkadto, sa mga baryo, banwa ukon uma, ang mga tawo nagdala sang ila mga masakiton sa mga tiyendahan, kag nagpakiluoy sa iya nga kon mahimo makatandog ang mga balatianon bisan sa sidsid lamang sang iya kunop, kag ang tanan nga nagtandog sini nag-ayo.

Meditation: Do you recognize the Lord's presence in your life? The gospel records that when Jesus disembarked from the boat the people immediately recognized him. What did they recognize in Jesus? A prophet, a healer, the Messiah, the Son of God? For sure they recognized that Jesus had power from God to heal and to make whole bodies, limbs, minds, and hearts that were beset with disease, affliction, and sin. What happened when they pressed upon him and touched the fringe of his garment? They were made well. The Lord Jesus is ever ready to meet our needs as well. Do you approach him with expectant faith?
Faith is an entirely free gift which God makes to us through the power of the Holy Spirit. Believing and trusting in God to act in our lives is only possible by the grace and help of the Holy Spirit who moves the heart and converts it to God. The Holy Spirit opens the eyes of the mind and helps us to understand, accept, and believe God's word. How do we grow in faith? By listening to God's word with trust and submission. Faith also grows through testing and perseverance. The Lord wants to teach us how to pray in faith for his will for our lives and for the things he wishes to give us to enable us to follow him faithfully and serve him generously. Jesus gave his disciples the perfect prayer which acknowledges God as our Father who provides generously for his children. The Lord's prayer teaches us to seek first the kingdom of God and to pray that God's will be accomplished in our lives. The Lord in turn, gives us what we need to live each day for his glory. The Lord is never too distant nor too busy to meet us and to give his blessing. Do you pray to the Father with confidence that he will show you his will and give you what you need to follow him? Ask the Lord to increase your faith and gratitude for his merciful love and provision for your life.
"Lord Jesus, let my heart sing for joy in your presence. Give me eyes of faith to recognize your presence and fill me with your Holy Spirit that I may walk in your way of love and peace."
