In the ancient town of Magdala (just north of Tiberius on the Sea of Galilee) recent archeological discoveries have revealed the ruins of this ancient town. The Roman Catholic Church has created a retreat center next to the archeological site. In the lower level of one of their main buildings, is the Encounter Chapel. The Encounter painting pictured above by Daniel Cariola is a portion of the huge mural that portrays today’s text from Luke. The painting is dedicated to Jesus’ encounter for all of us, whatever our needs may be, that we could touch Him. If you’re interested in getting a copy of the entire mural, you can contact the store at this website. https://magdalashop.com/
You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
Psalm 116:8
A woman who had been suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all she had on physicians, no one could cure her. She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak, and immediately her flow of blood stopped.
Luke 8:43-44
Holy Spirit, open my eyes to see my need for Jesus and draw me into his presence. Forgive me, Lord, for turning to everything and everyone else for help. I need to lay out my problems and issues before you. By your power, stop the bleeding of my own self-sufficiency and help me to point others to you. Amen.
