Healing

From derrach.blogspot.com

I just read an article yesterday about healing. Not Jesus walking down the street giving a blind man back his sight healing. Not some crazy preacher at a huge stadium with lines of people being touched healing. Not normal ordinary people in their workplaces praying for co-workers healing.

A different healing.

A bringing a dead life, a destructed life, a horrible existance of humanity, a dark being back into the light. It was a tremendous story of redemption, hope, belief, truth and healing.

I thought for a while after reading the article that this was the high calling of those who would call themselves Christians: to take a battered, lied to, broken human and collect their rubble, breathe on it and watch it begin to reconnect and walk around like a real life again.

I'm sure we all have reasons why we can't do something like that but I think that the cause of the gospel erases those excuses and moves us to a place where we must take action.

So jump over your fears and reach out. Dare to love. Take a leap of faith and extend your heart toward a dying mass...you might be amazed at how quickly the hands of Jesus take over in your pursuit to heal.
