Day 296: Mark 9-10; Psalm 125

The disciples lived with You, walked with You, heard You teach, saw You interact with people and perform signs and wonders. How beyond amazing that must have been. And, yet, You said it was necessary for You to go so that the gift of the Holy Spirit may be ours. That we may walk in the truth and live empowered and holy lives, this is Your design and desire. Thank You that You have made this way possible for us! Help us now to live in Your presence and promise, Lord Jesus. Amen.
