The man saw himself only as a Leper. Not as a person. He was under the influence of a SPIRIT OF REJECTION. His leprosy had made him an outcast...a person not allowed to mingle in society or to join in religious gatherings.
Jesus responded with three words that would forever change his future. He said: "I AM WILLING!" In other words, "I will help you."
If you are suffering from rejection, guilt, shame or any other social stigma remember this: Jesus revealed God as THE WILLING GOD. The God who wants to help you!
God hasn't rejected you, He has accepted you. He won't leave you in your SIN, DESPAIR, GUILT or SHAME...He will offer you HOPE & that hope will bring a change within your spirit.
