Healed by Their Service

The man on the mat
paralyzed, unable to walk
carried by his friends
taking him to Jesus
bringing him to the one
who could heal our brokenness

Not willing to accept no for an answer
the physical no barrier
for committed friends
lifting him up
through the roof
lowering before Christ

Our savior open
giving the man healing
for the faith of the ones
who lowered him down
moved by their faith
healing the brokenness
forgiving his sins
making him whole
