THAT LOVING TOUCH!




















THAT LOVING TOUCH!


He had that loving touch
He had-
THAT loving feeling


That is-WHO our Jesus was


Did you ever WISH
That you had lived
When he lived?
Many people got to
Physically touch him-and were healed


“EVERYONE in the crowd
Sought to touch him
Because power came forth


From him
And HEALED them all” Luke 6:19


And yet he still touches us
EVEN today-he still
Walks with us


He still has the CAPACITY
To HEAL us all


Who else
Is there to touch?
Who else
Is there to turn to?


Touch me-heal me Lord
THAT LOVING TOUCH OF Jesus!


“Just then a woman
Who had been subject to bleeding
For twelve years
Came up behind him


And touched the edge
Of his cloak


She said to herself,
'If I only touch his cloak
I will be healed'


Jesus turned and saw her,
'Take heart daughter,' he said
'Your FAITH has healed you'


And the woman was HEALED
At that moment” Matthew 9:20-22


The healing touch of Jesus
THAT LOVING TOUCH


You will have the opportunity
To touch others in this world
Through the LOVING TOUCH
Of Jesus


It is TRUE that we are
HIS hands-his feet-his eyes-
In today's world


We are HIS HELPERS-
And his loving touch is SPREAD
Through us-in today's world


By SPREADING his love-his forgiveness-
And kindness


We HELP spread
That loving touch Of Jesus


“And when the men
Of that place
Recognized Jesus


They sent word
To ALL the surrounding country


People brought ALL
Their sick to him
And begged him


To let the sick
Just touch the edge
Of his cloak


And all who touched it
WERE HEALED” Matthew 14:35-36


Oh how we miss-
Oh how we LONG FOR
THAT LOVING TOUCH
Of Jesus in today's world


But the Lord can still use you
To be a conduit


HUG a stranger
SEND a card to a sick friend
GIVE a respectful nod-or-
An ENCOURAGING SMILE to another


HELP spread THAT LOVING TOUCH-
And healing touch of the Lord


The loving touch-THAT LOVING TOUCH-
Of Jesus-STILL LIVES-in today's world
