Capacity to heal

SWe may have compassion with people who have physical ailments but what the Lord tells us is to have compassion for people with spiritual ailments. If we are eager to cure each other's physical ailments, then we need to listen to the Lord telling us that we must equally, perhaps even double our eagerness to attend to each other's spiritual ailments.

Maybe we do not have the capacity to give the right advice but certainly we have the capacity to pray for those who are spiritually sick. Maybe, though we are not the proper counselor and we do not have any degree in Psychology, yet centainly we have the capacity within our hearts to extend a helping hand, to give a tap on the shoulder, or to make a long delayed phone call, or to write a letter of support an assistance. These are not very expensive medicines but they can mean a lot to people who are spiritually sick.

The Lord has given us the power to cure every disease of the body and the soul. Let us be aware of our capacity to heal...
Let us look aroud us to find out who are spiritually sick.
