Luke 6:19<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed [them] all.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Our kids are a source of joy and delight, but they also bring us to the brink of concern. Such was the case with our youngest daughter many years ago. She and a neighbor boy were playing in the yard. He had constructed a small bow and used a stick for an arrow. He had not been shooting at her, but he accidentally released the stick at the wrong time and it struck her in the eye.<\/p>\n

A frantic trip to the Emergency Room followed. A prominent eye specialist \u00a0examined Lori\u2019s eye. There was a jagged tear on the cornea and he was concerned that she possibly could lose sight in that eye. He insisted that we keep her lying quiet in a darkened room.<\/p>\n

A few hours later we took her home and made her as comfortable as possible in the living room. I returned to work while my wife Joyce sat across the room reading under a soft light.<\/p>\n

Suddenly Lori asked, \u201cMom, did you just touch me?\u201d Joyce said that she hadn\u2019t. Lori insisted that someone had touched her eye. We could hardly wait to have her re-examined by the same doctor. He was astonished to find that the eye had healed and there was no loss of sight. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

We all need a touch from the Lord. It may be for a physical healing, a spiritual re-birth, an emotional renewal or some other need. All we have to do is remain quiet and allow the Lord to touch in His own way and in His own time.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!<\/p>\n
