The Touch of Jesus
And Jesus came and touched them. Matthew
17:7 KJV
Jesus’
touch is like no other. He reaches out to us with the hand of true
servanthood, with the warmth of deep compassion, with the wonder of
tender mercies, with the understanding of a caring shepherd, and with
the grace of unconditional love.
His hands assure us, His arms uphold us, His embrace affirms us.
His touch renews us, restores us, revives us, and refreshes us.
His
touch is filled with the promises of love—His touch tells us
that we are His, that He is near, that He is able, that we are cared
for with the fullness of the Father’s heart.
Jesus touched the children and blessings came upon them.
Jesus touched the lepers and they were completely cleansed.
Jesus touched the sick and miraculously they recovered.
Jesus touched the blind and eyes were gloriously opened.
Jesus touched the brokenhearted and they were mended and made whole.
Jesus touched the fearful and peace returned to their troubled souls.
Whatever
your need may be, Jesus’ hand is extended to touch you, to
bless you, and to bring His goodness to you. His touch is your
celebration, your joy, your hope, and your heart’s delight.
