In our reading today, Jesus both forgives the sins of a man who was paralyzed and also provides him with physical healing. Through the gift of healing and forgiveness, Jesus changed this man’s life. From this account, we learn that Jesus has the power to change our lives, to forgive our sins, and to bring healing to us. The healing that Jesus offers us is a restoration between us and God.

Matthew 9.1-2: Jesus climbed into a boat and went back across the lake to his own town. Some people brought to him a paralyzed man on a mat. Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “Be encouraged, my child! Your sins are forgiven.” (NLT)
