“He awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm. He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid they marveled, saying one to another, “Who is this, then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”(Luke 8:24-25)
He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them,
and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.
They ate, and were all filled.
They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.(Luke 9:17)
Now in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.
Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves.
He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!”
Immediately the fig tree withered away.(Matthew 21:18)
When he saw Jesus, he fell on his face, and begged him, saying,
“Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”
He stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying,
“I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately the leprosy left him.(Luke 5:12-13)
When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him.
Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?”
They told him, ”Yes, Lord.”
Then he touched their eyes, saying,
“According to your faith be it done to you.”
Their eyes were opened.(Matthew 9:28-30)
“Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand,
he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately.(Luke 8:54-55)
How amazing is it to think that the Christ who stilled the stormy seas, and fed the five thousand, and caused a fig tree to wither just with the power of His voice, and healed the leper, and gave the blind sight, and raise the dead to life - is the Christ of our Mondays, too?
