Mark 1: 45 Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.
Jesus told the healed man not to tell. In fact, he gave a strong warning that he should only show himself to the priests to follow the procedure given in Mosaic law.
Of course he told everyone. It was life-changing! The result was that Jesus became a celebrity. He was forced to stay out of sight. The people found him anyway. If only people today were so easily influenced to seek our Saviour!
Prayer: I am so sad. People I know, including myself, are hurting. Life is so hard. Where can I go for healing? Guide me to the lonely place where You are found.
Amen
