“All the crowd sought to touch him, for power came out from him.” – Luke 6:19
After a successful heart surgery, the surgeon places her stethoscope on the patient’s chest. The soft lub-dub sound makes her smile—it means the heart is beating strong again. Later, she tells her students, “That sound isn’t just biology. It’s life. When the heart works, everything else can heal.”
The crowd pressed in around Jesus, each hoping to touch Him—not out of superstition, but out of belief that “power came out from him” (Luke 6:19). His healing wasn’t fragmented or selective; it flowed like a rhythm, reaching every broken place. In a surgical room, a steady heartbeat means life flows to the body. In the same way, Christ’s healing power pulsed outward, restoring everyone it touched. He is the true source of wholeness—spiritually, physically, emotionally. Jesus still moves that way today. As the fullness of God in bodily form and the One who overcame death itself (Col 2:9, 14–15), He doesn’t just treat symptoms—He restores hearts, identities, and destinies. Wherever you’re hurting, reach out. His rhythm of grace is still beating—strong enough for you.
