“Why does your master eat with tax collectors and sinners?” When He heard this, He replied, “It is not the healthy who need the doctor, but the sick…”

Recently a trauma surgeon expressed to me her fascination with the human body: “You can cut open the body and tear the flesh and yet, in spite of the damage, somehow this tissue has the ability to reorganize and reconstruct itself, to heal … This never stops amazing me!” As one who sees some of the most damaged patients admitted to the hospital, she remains in awe of the miracle of healing. Surely, as God graces our bodies with the ability to mend, God also promises healing of the spirit and frail hearts of human beings.

GREAT PHYSICIAN, THANK YOU FOR MAKING US STRONG AND FOR HEALING US WHEN WE ARE HURT. THANK YOU FOR LIFE. HELP US TO THANK YOU FOR DEATH. AMEN.
