A New Family
“When he came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cured of his leprosy”
(Matthew 8:1-3).

Susan closed her eyes and whispered, “God, if you are real, I need to know.??? Suddenly she felt as if God had wrapped her in a warm blanket and enclosed her in His love.? Then she asked Jesus Christ into her heart. Susan prayed for healing in her family.? It wasn’t long before her mother and father also received Christ!? Now Susan’s family is a wonderful picture of God’s healing touch.
