"But not finding a way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on the stretcher through the tiles into the middle in front of Jesus." Luke 5:19
Do you realize we are only two weeks away from Christmas Eve, where has the time gone. I am envisioning those in the stores running around trying to find the perfect gift for a friend or relative. What about the gift of Jesus? The paralytic was paralyzed by sin, like all of us. His friends knew Jesus could heal, what better gift than being placed in front of Jesus. They didn't bring him in the front door, they lowered him through the roof. An unconventional entrance but it was what the paralytic needed. As you finish the last couple of weeks, who do you know that could use the healing touch of Christ. Find an unconventional entrance for them so Christ can become their Healer.
Dear Heavenly Father, we spend time every year trying to find the perfect gift and You are perfect. Help us call to You to find the unconventional entrance, open up the possibilities of Christ being the perfect gift. Show us how to get in front of Him and allow the miracle of His healing radiate another life. I see You at work and I am in awe of watching lives being transformed, You forgive our sins and bring us to a deeper understanding of who You are and what we are called to be; disciples. Amen.
Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.
