Touch Him
Based on Luke 24:36b-48
The Risen Jesus showed his wounded hands and feet to his disciples and asked them to touch them. When they touched his wound, they believed him. We must touch the Risen Jesus. As we touch his wounded hands and feet, he touches us to make us whole. Empowered by his touch, we are to touch the wounded people and the broken Earth to make them whole.
