Life is hard.  Since I’ve gotten the dreaded disease, leprosy, I’m not allowed to live with my family, and can’t come near healthy people.  I spend most of my time with nine other lepers, just trying to stay alive.

I was born without sight.  It’s something I’ve lived with all my life and I don’t think about it much.  Mostly, I sit along the road and wait. Wait for someone to talk to me or give me bread to eat or water to drink.  Always, I listen to the conversations of people passing by. … Read More »

My name is Peter.  I’m a follower of Jesus.  After we fed the 5000 people, it was getting late in the day.  Jesus instructed us to take a boat and go to the other side of the lake while He went to a secluded place to pray. When we were a distance from the shore… Read More »

I was in the crowd of people at the house of Jarius, an elder in the local synagogue, when Jesus raised his daughter from the dead.  I heard the wailing when she was dead and the joy when she was brought to life.  I heard all of this; but I didn’t see anything, because I’m… Read More »

March 1, 2018 By Roy Pennycoff Leave a Comment

I have a lot of questions.  Most of them are about the future.  What if I get sick?  What about thieves and robbers?  How will we pay the bills?  Will our children be safe?   What should we wear?  What should we eat?  What should I say to that person that’s going through a tough time? … Read More »

As Jesus went from place to place in Judea and Galilee, teaching His disciples and crowds about the Kingdom of Heaven, His heart was full of compassion for the suffering of His people.  Many were blind, lame, and leprous; but all were like lost sheep; for the religious leaders had crushed their spirit by imposing… Read More »
