Day 296 - Mark

Daily Reading:  Mark 1-3

My Bible says that Mark was probably the first Gospel written.  The other Gospels quote all but 31 verses of Mark.  Mark records more miracles than does any other Gospel.

Would you take some time today and share a verse or two that stands out to you?  It could be a verse God used to speak to you, a favorite verse, or anything that caused you to pause as you were reading.  Maybe you even read the verse twice.  It could be a verse from Mark or anywhere else that you are reading right now.  I'll go first:

Mark 1:13:  and he was in the desert forty days, being tempted by Satan.  He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him.

Mark 1:35:  Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.

Mark 2:17:  On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.  I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

Mark 3:24-25:  If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.  If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
