By The Pool of Bethesda
*The first 40 seconds of this video is intentionally a black screen - you will see the video soon! )
I'll never forget the day I heard a pastor say, "You do know that when Jesus went to the pool of Bethesda, he didn't heal everyone. What do you think about "that" Jesus?"
I couldn't get that out of my mind. Later, I was sweeping the floor of our house while "The Lord's Prayer" was playing on a CD. I was visualizing a leper by the pool watching Jesus stroll on by as they held out their hand for help, and this little story washed over me in time to the music. Forgive the poor acting, but the message is what is important. Yes, God loves us and takes no joy in our sufferings. But our eternal salvation is his ultimate concern and in the end, the most essential healing.
