When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had arrived, they came and started to argue with him. Testing him, they demanded that he show them a miraculous sign from heaven to prove his authority. When he heard this, he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why do these people keep demanding a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, I will not give this generation any such sign.” So he got back into the boat and left them, and he crossed to the other side of the lake. (Mark 8:11-13)

Do we exasperate Jesus as the religious leaders of His day did? Do we seek Him or the sign. Do we accept, love, and desire Him? Or do we only want what He can do for us? – gene
