Jesus has the power not only to heal, but also to forgive sins; he has come to heal the whole man, soul and body; he is the physician the sick have need of.Reflection: We often think of Jesus as healer only in spiritual terms, but Jesus is concerned with our whole bodies. During his time on earth he practiced a very "holistic" healing approach, healing mind and body. We must still see him this way.
- CCC No. 1505
Prayer: Jesus, be the true healer for all the suffering and sick.
