Light of the World

John 9:1 Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. v2. And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" v3 Jesus answered, "Niether this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him. v4 I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day, for the night is coming when no one can work. v5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

Beloved, there are many reasons why there are sick and disabled people in the world.  Some of the reasons are known only to God.  Suffice it to say we live in a fallen world, where sickness, pain, and sorrow prevail. Jesus made it clear all sickness is not from sin, there might be other reasons.  We have sickness from modern day chemicals in the food and water, as well as air pollution and over processed food.  We can also have sickness from certain vaccines that are meant to bring us health.  Health and healing is a very complex issue but it affects every person on the earth.  One thing is for certain, however, Jesus is the light of the world, and through Him we can have healing and restoration of strength. Not totally, for in the end our earthly tents wear out and we lay them down in the earth. But we can look to Jesus to shine a light in the darkness, and have a measure of healing that ordinarily would not be possible. Give thanks to Jesus this day if you have life and have been given some healing of some infirmity in your life. Our God is Jehovah Rapha, the God who heals us.  At Gather the Outcasts we preach restoration and pray for the sick, we believe it is within the providence of Almighty God to heal and restore. Pray about your part in sending us to the nations of Africa, to preach the light of Jesus. As you send we can go!  May God bless you as you pray.
