Jesus reaches toward people who are untouchable, invisible, or on the outside looking in. As He expresses His life through us, He will do the same thing through us today.
In Luke 5:12, a man with leprosy asks Jesus, "If you are willing, you can make me clean." He has faith in Jesus' ability to heal, but he is not sure if He is willing (probably because he doesn't feel worthy). In Luke 5:13, Jesus says, "I am willing!"
Luke 5:12 - While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. e When he saw Jesus, he fell with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
Luke 5:13 - Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
