‘Still willing,
Yes! He’s still willing’, this I say,
Reflecting on
the healing He did that day,
When a leprous man came on bended knee.
Far a way from him all others had to
flee.
‘If You are willing, You can
make me clean.’ *
For leprosy there was no cure or
vaccine.
In public, he had to proclaim, ‘Unclean, unclean!’
Everyone who heard him knew well what
that would mean.
But far from this man, Jesus did not
flee,
Though He knew The Law from their
history.
Then He had the nerve to reach out and touch,
This fellow with a sickness feared so
much!
‘I am willing. Be cleansed,’ He said to him,
Instantly healed from that disease so
grim!
So excited, he went and spread his good
news,
Forgetting about Levitical curfews! **
Friend, to you this should be really
Good News.
If you’re sick, on this story you can
muse.
This same Jesus Who healed a leper that day,
Is ALIVE
and WELL to send healing
your way!
All He needs is sincere faith that
authorizes,
Healing that your miracle actualizes.
So go ahead, muse and meditate this
great story,
Then for your own healing, give God
praise and all glory!
Think of others who, like you, may need
to be healed.
Tell them, after on your knees for them
you have kneeled:
‘Still willing, Yes! He’s still
willing, to you I say!
Meditate on the healing Jesus did that
day!’
