The mad woman sat in a corner of the Abuja, Nigeria shopping complex, holding a copy of a New Testament Bible. She was reading the story of the man with an unclean spirit in the country of the Gadarenes and the encounter which led to his deliverance in Mark 5. She was in a way affirming the hope of the tormented.

?And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him.? ? Mark 5: 5-6 (KJV)

What do you make of the signs of the times?
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
