DOUBLED OVER
Today's reading:  Luke 13-14

"One Sabbath day as Jesus was teaching in the synagogue he saw a woman who had been crippled by an evil spirit.  She had been bent double for eighteen years and was unable to stand up straight.  When Jesus saw her he called her over and said, Woman, you are healed of your sickness!  Then he touched her and she could stand straight.  How she praised and thanked God!"  Luke 11:10-13 NLT

One question for you:  How's your posture?

Are you doubled over in pain from worry, fear or doubt?

Are you bent in half from the weight of the burdens, sins of your past or labels put on you by others?

Are you humiliated  by what you've done, so much so you refuse to stand straight and tall, able to look others in the eye?

Jesus straightens things out.
