The healing and wholeness Jesus offered people of his time (and us today) cost nothing but the willingness to be healed. We only need to admit that we are sick, that we are broken and come to him. The best way to pay for the healing touch of Christ is not with money, but with praise.
One of our Puritan ancestors – Thomas Watson – once wrote:
"Christ is the most cheap physician, he takes no fee. He desires us to bring nothing to him but broken hearts; and when he has cured us he desires us to bestow nothing on him but our love."
