Successful Healer

 Mark 3: 7-12

A Great Crowd Follows Jesus

7 Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great crowd followed, from Galilee and Judea 8 and Jerusalem and Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from around Tyre and Sidon. When the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they came to him. 9 And he told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they crush him, 10 for he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed around him to touch him. 11 And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.” 12 And he strictly ordered them not to make him known.

We can just imagine the crowds pressing  down on Jesus to have him touch and heal them. A great number needed help and Jesus did no hold back. 

Today there is a greater need for healing, for a restoration of faith, practice of that faith, love of neighbor, peace and harmony among all peoples, to name a few.  Jesus is not here physically to address these needs, but he has us in his place. A huge responsibility, a huge challenge. Can I meet it?  Where do I begin?  Do I think it's all up to me, or do I believe that Jesus is with me to help? Dear Jesus help me to bring healing to family, friends, and even strangers, remembering that nothing is impossible with you.
