Jesus Heals

Tuesday. Mark 7: 31-37.

Jesus healed men of their bodily ailments when he was down here. And he still does. He uses and blesses human knowledge and skill, and he heals also, by direct touch. Yet frequently he permits ailments to remain unhealed so that we may be healed of our stubborn ways, and be wrought into sweet, full accord with himself. Satan contests this ground stubbornly. He imitates God’s healing. Jesus gladly heals when he can have full sway in the life.
