Broiled Fish and Some Honeycomb

 As He taught them a shadow of the cross fell across the old testament and their "eyes were opened."  He was that ram at Abraham's alter.  He was that spotless Passover Lamb whose blood was shed to bring freedom from slavery and deliverance from death.  He was that scarlet thread that hung out Rahab's window.  The Shepherd King:  David spoke so much about Him in the Psalter.  He was Isaiah's suffering servant, the fourth man in the furnace with Shadrach, Meshash, and Abed-Nego.  And yet He will never vanish from my sight unless i allow it.  Jesus' purpose isn't to push Himself onto anyone.  As humans, as mortals, He wants us to come to Him.  That's probably the only Hunger He ever has!  Is for us to come to Him.  i was the other disciple walking along the road to Emmaus.  i've gone from the road to Damascus to the road to Emmaus.  i've been writing about what Christ has done for me.



Praise goes to the Lord!  Joy to the world!   Why do you seek the living among the dead?  He is not here but is risen!  Remember how He spoke to you...saying, "The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again."--[Luke 24: 5-6]

He can stalk me all He wants.  That's how i feel about Him now and i don't mind if it appears i'm ready to begin stalking Him.  At this point, i don't know if i have fully learned from my mistakes nor from Peter's.  i don't have to run to the empty tomb to see His linen cloths lying by themselves; nowadays, the Resurrection of my Savior doesn't affect me with the marvel like it did Peter--and that needs to change.  i'd give anything to experience what Peter went through at that moment. [v. 12]
