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
