Jesus Heals the Sick in Gennesaret ~
Isn't it awesome that Jesus heals everybody. There is no prior mention of Jesus' ministry in Gennesaret, yet word of His ministry has spread to the extent that these people know of it. Just to touch the fringe of His robe is enough. So, people from all over the region flocked to the marketplace to be healed.
So, the healing draws the crowd, but what about the bigger picture? Jesus was able to heal their bodies, but He came to heal their souls. His healing power drew them in, but it was His teaching that truly changed their lives. I think we often get caught up in the physical and we miss the eternal. As you go about your week - make an effort be conscious of your motives. Are you looking at the immediate, the physical? Or are you seeking the eternal?
