While He was passing by I called out to Him To heal my blind eyes He gently rubbed mud Into my eyes Washing it out with The cleansing water Of His Word While he was passing by I called out to him Thou Son of David Heal me! My leprous spots Vanished At his command While he was passing by My unclean spirit Was flowing from my body As it had done for Far too many years Seeking many physicians I had found no remedy The answer Was as simple As touching The hem of His garment Though for years I had not been able To walk I called for the elders, For me, they tore apart the roof In order to lay me down At Jesus's feet Though I was dead in my sins Hope was still there For I had a mother, father, brother Or sister in Christ Who cared Believing salvation was for me That miracles still do happen For the blood, Christ shed on the cross Still cleanses, heals, and resurrects Amen. He has come that we can have life and have it more abundantly. |

Septsong, This is a wonderful poem about the compassionate powers of Jesus as illustrated in the first person of several of those He healed--it speaks volumes of the power and grace which He also has for our own lives. Thank you for this lovely poetic-message. David "Our Creativity points to a Higher Creator--we couldn't have just happened, and for what ability we may possess--to God be the glory." -dlw- |

You know years ago I ordered tapes of the Bible that were put into cartoon form. I had no idea how I was going to pay for them, but I knew I had to have them for my kids. There was a will and God found a way. There is one tape that came in the series, called The Miracles of Jesus. Which has become a dud and isn't working, but when I watched that, everytime I saw it I found myself in tears at the things he did for others. I noticed something a while back in the Bible that really made me think. For the woman who touched his robe, he said by your faith you are healed! In Matt 9:29, Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you According to your faith are so many things. That just struck me, when we ask for healing or something like that, how is our faith? Are we defeated before we ask, not really believing that it will happen? According to your faith be it unto you. Just a thought...< !signature--> <*\\\>< When you can't make up your mind, Which way is right for you, Stop and softly ask yourself, "What Would Jesus Do?"

Stepsong, This is lovely. I ditto everything above and would like to add what you spoke of in your last verse and how it relates to the last miracle you wrote of. The men letting the man down by the ropes were the men of faith, as you spoke of those cherished family members praying for the unsaved one, there was the hope. Amen. |
