Physician

Have you been to a doctor’s office lately? It is not filled with people who are well. The healthy have no need for corrective lenses, antibiotics, heart medication, cancer treatments, hearing aids, or surgery. As Jesus said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician.” But when vision becomes blurry, the infection won’t go away, chest pains come, and concerning symptoms occur, you head to a doctor right away.

Jesus came to deal with our disease. He “bore our sins in his body on the tree . . . by his wounds [we] have been healed” (1 Peter 2:24). Jesus is the Great Physician.
