“But as He went.” — Luke 8:42
Jesus is passing through the throng to the house of Jairus, to raise the ruler’s dead daughter; but He is so profuse in goodness that He works another miracle while upon the road. While yet this rod of Aaron bears the blossom of an unaccomplished wonder, it yields the ripe almonds of a perfect work of mercy. It is enough for us, if we have some one purpose, straightway to go and accomplish it; it were imprudent to expend our energies by the way. Hastening to the rescue of a drowning friend, we cannot afford to exhaust our strength upon another in like danger. It is enough for a tree to yield one sort of fruit, and for a man to fulfil his own peculiar calling. But our Master knows no limit of power or boundary of mission. He is so prolific of grace, that like the…
sun which shines as it rolls
onward in its orbit, His path is radiant with lovingkindness. He is a swift
arrow of love, which not only reaches its ordained target, but perfumes the
air through which it flies. Virtue is evermore going out of Jesus, as sweet
odours exhale from flowers; and it always will be emanating from Him, as
water from a sparkling fountain. What delightful encouragement this truth
affords us! If our Lord is so ready to heal the sick and bless the needy,
then, my soul, be not thou slow to put thyself in His way, that He may
smile on thee. Be not slack in asking, if He be so abundant in bestowing.
Give earnest heed to His word now, and at all times, that Jesus may speak
through it to thy heart. Where He is to be found there make thy resort,
that thou mayst obtain His blessing. When He is present to heal, may He
not heal thee? But surely He is present even now, for He always comes to
hearts which need Him. And dost not thou need Him? Ah, He knows how
much! Thou Son of David, turn Thine eye and look upon the distress
which is now before Thee, and make Thy suppliant whole.
