    The gospel passage Mark 1.40-45 shows how God relates himself to the human infirmities of body and mind. The story shows the possibility of human suffering under physical and mental infirmities. The story brings us clarity through the two opposing behaviours. God tries to bring healing into such a ...read more

Everywhere he went, he had to declare his uncleanness. No one would dare get close to him. Touching him was not even considered. ...read more
