He turned restlessly on the makeshift pallet and looked at the crowd…
How was he supposed to get in?
He looked down at his withered legs and again felt the pangs of shame…
You would have felt he was used to shame, after all he had had to deal with this from birth…
He was used to the looks of pity, and the rejection of society…
He now remembered when his friends told him about a strange man who worked miracles…
He was a strange man who challenged the norms of society, and even the elders of the day hated him…
But he was working mighty miracles of power….
“They say he claims to be equal with Yaweh, maybe he can help you!” his friends said excitedly…
They heard this strange prophet was healing the sick and ministering at an event hall…
But when they got there, it was packed full, both inside and outside!
Daniel, his oldest friend and the most brash said ..“Don’t worry, I have an idea!”
The idea involved opening a hole in the roof of the hall and letting him down inside…
Daniel was the craziest of his 4 friends….
He could see the strange prophet…. his words carried power, and he spoke with such authority that everyone was listening to him…
Then everywhere went quiet with people gasping and looking at him, as he was lowered through the roof
He looked into the prophets’ eyes and faith exploded in his spirit.
“Don’t worry son, your sins are forgiven…” the prophet said.
He heard the murmuring of the pharisees, stuck up religious prudes who were all words and hypocrisy…
The prophet replied, as if he knew their thoughts…“Why are you thinking these things?
Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’?”
“But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.”
He turned back to the man who was now lying helplessly on the pallet in front of him…
“Stand up, pick up your mat, and go home!”
Kayahhh!
The man felt fire entering his body, flowing into his bones…
Bone began to knit to bone,
Flesh to flesh
Sinew to sinew
He felt strength in his legs and attempted to stand…
He could stand!!
Supernatural healing!
The crowd went wild…
He remembered the masters command and took up his mat
He began to walk
He never looked back, save to acknowledge the name of the strange man who set him free…
The son of God…
