And just then there appeared a woman with a spirit that had crippled her for eighteen years. She was bent over and was quite unable to stand up straight. When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said,"Woman, you are set free from your ailment." When he laid his hands on her, she immediately stood up straight and began praising God.
(Lk 13:11-13)

Reflections

You cup may hands in yours.
Alone in your gaze
Beauty abounds.

Slippered feet
Syncopated to the drum
Dance in ecstasy

Feathered footfalls fly
Higher and higher
Rainbows of light shower me.
The wind whistles in my ears.

Questions for Intention: (How to Pray with Art)

What lifestyle patterns or fears 'cripple' me and how does Jesus heal me?

What experiences me along the way to walk with Jesus?

How does the healing ministry of Jesus fit into the Mission God sent him to fulfill?

What other features of Jesus' life attract you to him? Tell him. How does Jesus respond?
