[05/01/2022 AM] - "Wilderness Banquet" - Mark 6:35-44

We are a people greatly blessed. None of us thinks about God enough, we don't show Him enough thanks or obedience or worship; we are often fixated on our own plan and agenda and hopes. It might be fair to think that He would treat us like we treat Him. When we think that then do we again realize that we are a people greatly blessed. Perhaps Sunday will be our day to make a new start. Are you ready?

In the morning we will return to our study through Mark at 6.35-44. This is the wilderness banquet. Notice the tension existing between those two words - "Wilderness" "Banquet". Christ has rich things for His needy church in this text.
