Today’s Thought “Do It for Me, Right Now” G. Ward

Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. And Jesus *said to him, “See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.” Matthew 8:3-4

The earthly ministry of Jesus left no room for any to perceive Him as a rock star, but more sought to gather men unto an excellent premise of redemption, not miracles. While absolutely nothing remains difficult for our Great King, our marveling over the Creator of heaven and earth’s ability forgets we’ll have to report in or not (cf. Lk.16:19-31), as a childlike onlooker of magic, or as a child insisting HIS grace as sufficient regardless of earthly lack.

Thursday’s throwback takes no chance with Holy God’s granting moments; but asks what shall I render in the next seconds of mercy given me?
