Touched
"But Jesus came and touched them and said, “Arise, and do not be afraid.” When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only" (Matthew 17:7, 8 NKJV). Everlasting moments begin with an everlasting touch. Jesus Christ brings an everlasting touch. When one is touched by Jesus, they will never be the same. Their lives will be shaken, opened, and confronted by the Truth. The Light of Christ shines among the soul, reaching down into the heart, and revealing all that is hidden in the heart. There is no reason why one would want to remain their same old selves after being touched by Christ. Jesus took Peter, James, and John up to a high mountain, apart from all the others, and their Christ was transfigured before them. He shone like the sun. He was as white as the light. Then Moses and Elijah appeared talking with Christ. How powerful that must've been for these men of God, these disciples and followers of Jesus Christ. Great things happen when we follow Christ with a true relationship with Him. These three men were touched by Jesus that night by an everlasting touch. Then, "a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud which said, 'This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him'". They all fell on their faces and were afraid, but Jesus came and touched them. He said, "Arise, be not afraid". An everlasting moment brings an everlasting touch. God bless you. Amen
