Jesus Came to Give Us Health and Peace and Perfection of Character ㅡ

“This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, ‘He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.’ ” (Matthew 8:17, R.S.V.)

He “took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses,” that He might minister to every need of humanity. The burden of disease and wretchedness and sin He came to remove. It was His mission to bring to men complete restoration; He came to give them health and peace and perfection of character.

Varied were the circumstances and needs of those who besought His aid, and none who came to Him went away unhelped. From Him flowed a stream of healing power, and in body and mind and soul men were made whole.

The Saviour’s work was not restricted to any time or place. His compassion knew no limit.

Jesus carried the awful weight of responsibility for the salvation of men.

He was always patient and cheerful, and the afflicted hailed Him as a messenger of life and peace. He saw the needs of men and women, children and youth, and to all He gave the invitation, “Come unto me.” ...

As He passed through the towns and cities, He was like a vital current, diffusing life and joy. 
(Reflecting Christ 19)
