This guy…He was cut off completely from everything & everyone he’s ever loved No support system. No hope. Disfigured and decomposing, the man with palsy was with chronic and the incurable— and everyone believing he deserved it—so it wasn’t just fear from others, it was also shame. What was there to look forward to? Could hope even be found w/ something so impossible? Somehow the man “full of leprosy,” was able to dig deep to find whatever little bit of anything that was l

PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME! Here is the truth.. ‘O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?” was NOT in response to Peter’s sinking. It was not a jab to his faltering.
