Your sins are forgiven

What a beautiful gift: the forgiveness of sins. While the paralytic was brought for physical healing, Jesus extended the later to the forgiveness of sin. This shows that sin is the most dangerous illness of all. It is sin that is the cause of paralysis. It is sin that isolate and separates us from God. Sin causes fear, doubt, mistrust and paralysis.
Let's be like the friends of this paralytic who were willing to bring their friends to Jesus for healing. Let's surround ourselves with people of great faith who uplift our own faith. May we always strive to be the hand that feeds not only the lips that pray.
With the power of the Holy Spirit, let us pick up our mat and walk!
