3-I am happy to wear the name of Jesus-

4-I know God is real, because I have inside information-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-How long a time period was there between creation and Adam's creation?

2-Why did God need a day of rest in the creation story? Does He need a day of rest every seven days now?

3-Could there have been thousands of man years involved in each day of creation?

4-Why did the payment for sin always have to be death?

5-Why did God require a blood sacrifice for an atonement for sin?

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY MARK 14:32-42

32 Jesus and his followers went to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, "Sit here while I pray."

33 Jesus took Peter, James, and John with him, and he began to be very sad and troubled.

34 He said to them, "My heart is full of sorrow, to the point of death. Stay here and watch."

35 After walking a little farther away from them, Jesus fell to the ground and prayed that, if possible, he would not have this time of suffering.

36 He prayed, "Abba, Father! You can do all things. Take away this cup of suffering. But do what you want, not what I want."

37 Then Jesus went back to his followers and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn't you stay awake with me for one hour?

38 Stay awake and pray for strength against temptation. The spirit wants to do what is right, but the body is weak."

39 Again, Jesus went away and prayed the same thing.

40 Then he went back to his followers, and again he found them asleep, because their eyes were very heavy. And they did not know what to say to him.

41 After Jesus prayed a third time, he went back to his followers and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? That's enough. The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinful people.

42 Get up, we must go. Look, here come the man who has turned against me."

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
