Dipping In The Jordan River

They came by the thousands before the dusk hour to dip their quivering bodies in the Jordan River and take on the resemblance of Christ or alike; they were driven by faith other than curiosity: the limping who could hardly walk, the lonely who smiled less and the blind who lost their sight! His miraculous and divine hand touched them, they were healed by the man from Bethlehem; envious was the glance of the Scribe watching, Romans soldiers were shocked by the healing! They were women with children following Jesus, they knew Him since He was born in that manger; young men became the disciples of Christ, except one who betrayed Him, then he hung himself and died alone! Dip yourself in the same river and be totally healed, all sins are cancelled by the power of forgiveness; follow Him when uncertainty prevails over fears... faith withstands anything when salvation is delivered!
