“… Are you the One we’ve been expecting, or are we still waiting? In the next two or three hours Jesus healed many from diseases, distress, and evil spirits.” Luke 7:20-21 The Message

Are you still waiting…?

You may not believe it. You will probably struggle to accept it. You’ve been made perfect. He did it in the ordinary stuff of your life … the most imperfect places. The Perfect One exchanged his perfect everything for all of your imperfections. Jesus takes on your diseases .. distresses .. and evil spirits … a perfect match. We’ve been expecting Him … just not in this form. He’s not waiting for you to perfect yourself or try harder. He’s waiting for you to receive His gift. He’s waiting for you to relax and rest in His perfect longing for your life. He still heals. He still speaks into diseases and dark distresses. Jesus is the One waiting … for you. He is waiting for you … at exactly that place  in your heart … in your head … and on the outside where you are longing for His healing touch. It only takes a moment … 

“It was a perfect sacrifice by a perfect person to perfect some very imperfect people.” Hebrews 10:14 The Message
