"The herdsmen fled to the nearby town, telling everyone what happened to the demon-possessed men. Then the entire town came out to meet Jesus, but they begged him to go away and leave them alone."
Jesus chose to deliver two demon-possessed men at the expense of a herd of pigs. The people of that town could not handle that. Even though Jesus saved two men's lives, even though he made that area safe, the whole thing was too much for the people. They begged him to go away and leave them alone. There will always be people who don't want any part of what Jesus does. And sometimes we who believe might not like the way Jesus does things. But let us never ask him to leave us alone!
