What sign can you do?

John 6:30-35 If I wasn't in the same boat as these sinners following Jesus I would probably be laughing right in their face. I often wonder how Jesus kept from rolling on the grass laughing at what some people do. Today we hear the crowd ask Him, "What sign can you do, that we may see and believe in you? What can you do?..." Is this not the same crowd who in verse 2 we are told - "followed him, because they saw the signs he was performing on the sick ."? Are these not the same people who in verse 14 " when they saw the sign he had done, they said, "This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world."? Yet still they seek a sign. However, they are not seeking a sign so that they might believe, they are wanting to be fed. Jesus worked a "sign" with the loaves and the fishes and now they want Him to do it again. Wisely, Jesus is using their bellies to get to their hearts; He is using earthly things to move them,

Meanwhile, back at the ranch....

As many of you may know, we are in Seattle with Catherine for a special feeding clinic to help ween her from her g-tube.  I thought I would also share some pictures of what is taking place back home.  I think Mimi and Grandpa Dave have things under control.  Although I'm still not sure how their presence can cause boys to wear ties and take pictures and make crawfish appear out of the ground in Ohio.  Those cajuns are something else!!!!
