The appearance of Jesus after His resurrection marks the transformation of the faith of the disciples. Here the turning point for the foundation of Christianity was made, the belief of new life, life after death, providing meaning and direction to our lives here on earth. Imagine what it might have been like to be and observer of this event. Meditate on this for a moment or two day.

REFLECTION ON JESUS HEALING THE MAN WITH THE WITHERED HAND 23 JANUARY 2013

 

MAN WITH WITHERED HAND

Jesus shows us that sometimes our good deeds will result in our persecution. Those that judge (in this case the Pharisees), will ultimately be judged themselves. So we have to try and live out our Christian life as much as possible, and rely God to respond to us generously to our faith. By showing his power on the Sabbath, Jesus added to the list of reasons why the Pharisees wanted to “get rid of him”.
He clearly differentiated, through this miracle, who He was and his ability to heal and forgive sin.
