Friends in Christ Weekly Message 
February 14, 2009
     A leper came to him, begging on his knees, If you want to, you can cleanse me. 
     Deeply moved, Jesus put out his hand, touched him, and said, I want to. Be clean. Then and there the leprosy was gone, his skin smooth and healthy. 
Mark 1:40-42 (Message*) 
A couple of things about the attitude of the leper stand out for me:
- He was very humble, begging on his knees.
 
- He had faith in Christ's power.
  
The leper has a lot to teach us. We also need to approach the Lord in a humble spirit and having faith in Christ's power.
