Need a Doctor?

Matthew 9: 12

“Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.”

I got one of those calls after church yesterday, that caught me a little off guard.

Someone died without having a church, and they inquired if I would lead the funeral service.

This family made a visit to our old church a number of years ago, but they thought they could get along just fine without a spiritual family, that is until now.

I think that’s what the writer of Hebrews meant, when he said we shouldn’t forsake the fellowship of the saints.

Over the last five (5) years, this family suffered without anyone to care for them spiritually.

After heart attacks and strokes and diseases, death finally came.

This is the sole reason we’re involved with the ministry, Heaven’s Gates/Hells Flames in October out of our church.

The one’s who need a doctor, are right in our communities. They actually live right next door to us.

Who do you know, that needs the love of the Great Physician?

Would you knock on their door, if your knew they had a need only you could fill?

Do we really care for those who are sick?

I wonder sometimes if I really care about those who are sick, spiritually or otherwise?

One thing I do know, the person that passed on, I can’t help, but the ones who will be at the service in Wrightstown on Thursday afternoon, they will hear the truth.

What they do with the truth is up to them, but I’m going to help the sick, just because I have been called to do so…
