“Your faith has made you…”what!?!
Jesus ‘heals’ ten people who are marginalized by a skin disease and they have different responses. You see, ten were made clean, but only one was saved. Ten were made healed, but only one was made whole. Only one recognized what really mattered.
So what was their secret?
Prayer for this Sunday
Healing God, we grow accustomed to our faults, settle into our inadequacies, make excuses rather than hope and plans for healing. Come to us by the Holy Spirit to heal our opponents, whether they be across the globe, across town, or parts of ourselves that are at cross-purposes with love. We want to heal, help us to change. Healing God, becoming people, and a world defined by love rather than class, skin color, political party, gender identity, or religious affiliation means change. May it begin with us. May it begin with me. Amen.
