it's all in the touch

i keep thinking about the times Jesus touched lepers (specifically matthew 8:1-3, mark 1:40-42). and i feel convicted because i'm pretty sure that would gross me out. i have a hard time looking at things like "that" or even things like surgery scenes in grey's anatomy (not that i watch that show ;)).

to the point- i'm pretty sure the crap i pull grosses Jeuss out. i can be quite disgusting in the choices i make and junk i haul around in my heart. yet, Jesus will still touch me. i guess He loves me that much.

so who are we afraid to touch? who aren't we loving? who aren't we reaching out and touching? i know i need to evaluate my life and start touching the people that Jesus would touch without thinking twice.

it's all in the touch...
