#WednesdayWalk —Someone Has to Draw the Line

Ahead of me I noticed a man crouched, sitting in the center of the temple court staring down at the floor. “What are looking at?” I asked as I stepped next him, looking over his shoulder to see what could cause him to concentrate so hard on the ground by his feet. The man remained […]

WednesdayWalk —Long Distance Healing

I stood in the other room with my fellow servant so our friend could not hear us. “How long has he been paralyzed like this?” I asked. “Quite some time,” he responded. “He is tormented by it.” I sighed as I heard his moans from the pain in the other room. “Is there anything we […]

WednesdayWalk — Leaping for Joy

I stood in awe as I watched my friend stand, then walk with the two men into the temple courts. I followed them, watching my formerly lame friend walking and jumping, and praising God. I was filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

#WednesdayWalk — Just Another Man in the Desert

I was tired. Fatigue overtook my body. All I wanted was to lay on my mat in my home and hide under my blanket. Life was overtaking me. I was tired; tired of it all. Yet my friend encouraged me to go. “You have to see this man. He is like no one I’ve ever […]

#WednesdayWalk — The Hideout

The dampness in the cave chilled me to the bone. I pulled the blanket tighter around me. I looked at the faces of our haggard group of 50 survivors of this reign of terror. In the dim light of the lanterns I could see the fatigue on their faces. Yet there was an unmistakable joy […]

#WednesdayWalk — Waves of Regret

I could hear the ship creaking as it strained against the gale force winds and powerful waves. I had never seen such a violent storm in all my years sailing. Like the rest of the crew, I cried out to my god to spare us, afraid the ship was about to break apart. I gripped […]
