Luke 5
March 22, 2019
Today I read a prayer that contained these words, "Make me to be a more worthy follower of Him who cared for the poor and the oppressed, and who could never see disease without seeking to heal it or any kind of human need without turning aside to help."
When Jesus saw a leper, he reached out and touched that person.
When Jesus saw a tax collector, he reached out and called him to follow.
When Jesus saw someone paralyzed, he reached out and healed that person.
When Jesus saw someone in sin, he reached out and forgave that person.
Lord, give us eyes to see the world as you see it, to remember that you called us to be a light in a dark world. Help us to care for the poor, to have compassion on people, to love them, to encourage them, to heal them and finally to share the good news with them. Lord, give us your strength to do these things. Amen.
