Healing With Spittle

When we first arrived at Bethsaida, some men brought Jesus a blind man. They begged Jesus to touch him, so some way he could be healed. Jesus took the blind man by his hand and led him outside of the Village. Jesus then put spittle on his eyes and he was able to see clearly. Lastly Jesus told him, "Do not even go into the Village". This is crazy how Jesus was able to heal someone with the saliva from his mouth.

Jesus Walking on Water.

Today I think I witnessed one of the most unreal, unbelievable things ever. After Jesus went to pray in the mountains, he came back in the evening when our boat was far out in the sea while we were going to the other side of Bethsaida. Suddenly, a heavy breeze of wind came against our boat. I saw sometihng walking on water and I became terrified thinking it is a ghost, but I heard, "Take courage,it is I, do not be afriad!". As he entered the boat, the wind died down and all of us were in complete shock. After feeding 5,000 people with 5 loaves and 2 fish and walking on water I am starting to understand who he is.

Feeding of the 5,000!

Today on my companionship with Peter, I witnessed a miracle from Jesus. About 5,000 people were starving, without food for three days. Jesus told us to gather all the loaves of bread and fish we had. He ordered the people to sit in groups on the grass as he broke the five loaves of bread, divided the two fish, and said the blessing. Miraculously, It fed all 5,000 people with twelve wicker baskets full of leftovers! It was amazing, I have never seen anything close to this.
