Printable Karens Korner #4813

"Once a leper came and knelt in front of Him and begged to be healed. 'If you want to, you can make me well again,' he pled.

"And Jesus, moved with pity, touched him and said, 'I want to! Be healed!' Immediately the leprosy was gone---the man was healed!"

~ Mark 1:40 & 41 LAB

Bible Commentary: "The real value of a person is inside, not outside. Although a person's body may be diseased or deformed, the person inside is no less valuable to God. No person is too disgusting for His touch. In a sense, we are all lepers, because we have all been deformed by the ugliness of sin. But God, by sending his Son Jesus, has touched us, giving us the opportunity to be healed. When we feel repulsed by someeons, we need to stop and remember how God feels about that person----and each of us."
