raised from the dead - 2

they were healed

of their disease, their affliction

but it was far more than that

they were raised from the dead

they were not just cleansed

of the leprosy they carried

they were allowed to enter in

to the temple, into community

the one who returned

who stopped to thank Jesus

the one who praised God

the source of their healing

he was brought within

the community of believers

he was given life

and he was given life eternal
