Matthew 9:12 But when Jesus heard that, he said to them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. I once went with a friend who wanted to see a great physician. But there were ever so many other people waiting to see him, and they went in by turns one by one, and we had to wait a whole hour before our turn came. The physician could not attend to more than one person at a time. But if all you dear children were to pray to the Saviour this evening at the same moment, and tell Him all your wants, He could listen to you all at the same time, and help each of you according to your need. (W. Harris.) Parallel Verses KJV: But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. |
