Be free, live your life

Wherever I turn, the Good book screams – “Be free, live your life”.

Back when leprosy had no cure, there lived a leper who was isolated from his community, deprived of affection and relationships, lived a life of an outcast. He was hearing about The Healer. One day, it sparked hope in him.

People feared the spread of germs so living a life in isolation was the only choice. The damnation of a cursed life was unbearable – no connection with family/ work/ any sort of entertainment. Living a dreadful life and watching his sores worsen in his extremities day by day was the reality in the life of a leper. 

One day he rushed to meet The Healer at a distance, knowing that people will not accept his presence. 

He showed his faith by pleading if The Healer was willing to heal him. 

The Healer simply said – He is willing. 

The Healer touched the leper who is an incurable untouchable and spoke directly to his soul. 

The Healer said – Be clean.

Immediately, the leprous sores started shrinking, vanishing and he could see his natural skin on his body. His body showed visible changes. 

There is no explanation on how it all happened.

I know for sure it was the leper’s faith, knowing the will of the Healer and His Word. 

By seeking the Healer, the leper showed his faith that he could only be saved by The Healer and not by anyone else. 

When both the leper and the Healer agreed, he was ready to receive the greatest miracle of his life.

Finally, the leper was healed. He walked freely as a new man in his town. He received what he wanted from The Healer. 

Without his faith, this would not have been possible. The whole creation waited for him to be reintroduced, loved and cheered on this earth.

He was gifted to have such a beautiful healthy life. He sure had the greatest story to tell his family and generations after him. 

If the leper who was healed left a message for us, this would be it.

The Healer, Lord Jesus is the greatest gift to mankind!
