Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. (Matt 8:3)
Within this word, something amazing happened. A man with leprosy was desperate… reaching out to Jesus, he laid hold of His mercy. Jesus touched him, something no one would dare to do. The next He said those words, and His words had an immediate effect. Maybe you feel like this leprous man right now. Maybe your life might even be a mess to such an extent that people flee from you when they see you. Jesus is different. Have you cried to Him to take your sin away?
