Mark 1:40 “A man with leprosycame and knelt in front ofJesus, begging to be healed.“If you want to, you can makeme well again,” he said. Movedwith pity, Jesus touched him. “Iwant to,” He said. “Be healed!”New Living Translation

Leprosy was a feared disease becausethere was no known cure for it, (muchas AIDS is feared today). Yet Jesusreached out and touched the leper toheal him. We may consider certainpeople who are diseased or disabled tobe untouchable or repulsive. We mustnot be afraid to reach out and touchthem with God’s love. Whom do youknow that needs God’s touch of love?Life Application Bible Notes
