SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY MARK 5:1-10

1 Jesus and his followers went to the other side of the lake to the area of the Gerasene people.

2 When Jesus got out of the boat, instantly a man with an evil spirit came to him from the burial caves.

3 This man lived in the caves, and no one could tie him up, not even with a chain.

4 Many times people had used chains to tie the man's hands and feet, but he always broke them off. No one was strong enough to control him.

5 Day and night he would wander around the burial caves and on the hills, screaming and cutting himself with stones.

6 While Jesus was still far away, the man saw him, ran to him, and fell down before him.

7 The man shouted in a loud voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Moat High God? I command you in God's name not to torture me!"

8 He said this because Jesus was saying to him, "You evil spirit, come out of the man."

9 Then Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" he answered, "My name is legion, because we are many spirits."

10 He begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.

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