The journey may be difficult, but if you go to this Healer, there can be but one outcome!

It’s the most colorful of Jesus’ amazing miracle healings. A man desperate for help has friends let him down through the roof and right into the Savior’s lap! And this one gossiped-about infusion of divine power speaks volumes to us today. Because a caring Friend is anxious to bless and heal us too!

Whether we are struggling with medical issues, or a faltering marriage, a pink slip from work, or even the numb frustration of a Christian faith gone stale, this classic Bible story encourages us: do not allow ANYTHING to keep you apart from this generous Helper. Not the solar panels on a roof, not a habit, not your social-media distractions, not a cynical colleague, not a too-busy schedule. Jesus is near! Go! Find Him right now
