Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.

Nearly everyday Christ astounded the people with his doctrine or with his deeds. One of the things that Christ did was to visit the lepers in their affliction.

The leper was an outcast. People were afraid of touching the leper for fear that they too might get the dreaded disease. How lonely that existence must’ve been for these dear souls condemned to live as outcasts, always watching but never enjoying the touch of others. 

Amazingly, Christ not only entered into our world, but He willingly touched the broken lives of lepers, outcasts, and harlots. He loved the unlovely. 

What a difference, the touch of God could make! The old song says,

“Something happened and now I know,

He touched me and made me whole”

Just like the leper that needed the touch of God through Christ, we need a special touch from Him today.
