Monday, September 8: The Authority of Jesus

Day 1: The Authority of Jesus
Reading: Matthew 8:1-4

As we read about Jesus healing the leper, we're confronted with His incredible authority over disease and suffering. But more than that, we see His compassion in action. Jesus didn't just heal from a distance - He reached out and touched the untouchable. This act of love reminds us that no matter how unclean or unworthy we feel, Jesus is willing to meet us where we are. His authority isn't just about power, but about transforming love. Today, reflect on areas in your life where you feel "untouchable" or beyond help. Bring these to Jesus, trusting in His authority and compassion to cleanse and restore you
