Come As You Are, Not As You Think You Should Be

Everyone who reached for Jesus was healed.
That did not mean everyone in Israel, only those who came. None of them were worthy, and few understood Him fully, but all who touched Him received.
Mark 6:56
No interviews. No prerequisites.
Just need.
The religious leaders demanded proof of holiness; Jesus responded to hunger.
The world disqualifies the weak; Jesus says weakness is exactly where grace works best.
When He healed the man lowered through the roof, the crowd saw a sinner.
Jesus saw a son.
Mark 2:5
Jesus didn’t heal the worthy. He healed the willing.
And that hasn’t changed.
You don’t come to Jesus healed.
You come to Jesus to be healed.
He meets you in the reaching, not the arriving.
Jesus moves toward the hand that reaches, not the hand that qualifies.
