“Suddenly, a man with leprosy approached him and knelt before him. ‘Lord,’ the man said, ‘if you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean.’ Jesus reached out and touched him. ‘I am willing,’ he said. ‘Be healed!’ And instantly the leprosy disappeared.” Matthew 8:2-3 NLT
We probably have much to learn about the healing power of touch. Famous usually initiates our contact, rolling over on his back or strolling up to my legs, and I happily oblige with a back massage or belly rub. But when I feel a headache, or period of nausea, I reach out and stroke his warm coat and instantly feel a comfort that slows my breathing and lowers my pulse.
God is always willing to provide wholeness to us. Sometimes this involves physical healing and at other times spiritual healing. At times we are the vessels of God’s healing Spirit. Even if we do not understand the nature or timing of God’s healing, it is available to all who believe.
