Psalm: 75
Meditation: Mark
This is a story of one of the first gentile missionaries. An uncontrollable demon possessed man approaches Jesus. Jesus then casts out the demons into a herd of pigs that cast themselves into the water and drown. The people of the area are amazed and fearful and ask Jesus to leave. The healed man is told by Jesus to go and tell his friends what has happened to him, which he does, thus becoming an outreach to the gentiles.
