That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons. And the whole city was gathered around the door. And he cured many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him. In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed. And Simon and his companions hunted for him. When they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is searching for you.” He answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns, so that I may proclaim the message there also; for that is what I came out to do.” And he went throughout Galilee, proclaiming the message in their synagogues and casting out demons.

Brother James – you sent out last week’s comic in this week’s email. I got the right comic from here.
Thank you for these wonderful comics. I have been quietly following them for over a year now. Every once in a while they help inspire something that makes its way into my Sunday message.
In any case, despite the fact that the Bible is woven for the duration of our lives and culture, we regularly overlook the significance of God’s Word in our lives. We overlook that the Bible is the book God uses to address our hearts, brains and activities.
