Hello Everyone,

Can four words really change your life? Sure they can!

Here are some Examples:

I'm sorry, it's cancer. Yes, you are pregnant. You owe one thousand. Please take a number. The baby needs changed. You are being audited!

Jesus changes lives, and did so in our text with just four words. [Luke 7: 36-43]

36 Now one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, so he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 When a woman who had lived a sinful life in that town learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume, 38 and as she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.

39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”

40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.”

“Tell me, teacher,” he said.

41 “Two men owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42 Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he canceled the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”

43 Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt canceled.” “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.


True story--there was a woman who was on an overseas flight. She called flight attendant over to her and told her she was having a heart attack. Flight attendant asked, “Is there a doctor on board?” At that point, 67 people stood up. Obviously, they were doctors. "Which of you is a heart doctor?" They all remained standing. They were headed to a convention for cardiac surgeons.

Imagine her joy when she saw the doctors. They were ready, willing, and able to diagnose her problem and prescribe the right treatment.

They had the knowledge, the expertise, and the desire to take care of her and meet her needs.

I want to tell you that Jesus Christ stands ready, willing, and able to help you today. He is the Great Physician and you reading this is not by accident, it is by Divine Appointment!


- He has already diagnosed your problems.
- He has already prescribed the correct treatment through His Word.

- He has the knowledge He needs about you because He knows everything about you, even the things you haven’t told Him or anyone else.

- He has the expertise and the ability to take care of you.
- The greatest thing of all is that He has a deep desire to take care of you and see you made whole again.

Oh How He Loves Us!
