Touchpoints

Listen to the Audio

After years of working in the health and fitness industry the insight that has helped me best understand how our bodies work is that they are symbolic of the body of Christ. A few years ago I discovered something I call touchpoints and it is one of the best ways to eliminate pain and restrictions in our physical bodies. It is also one of the simplest and easiest things you have ever done. Whenever you are moving or stretching and feel tightness, restriction, or pain in your movement simply give that area a very light touch with one of your fingers, using the same amount of pressure you would use to touch your phone screen, and then repeat the movement again. When you repeat the movement the restriction and/or pain will often be dramatically reduced or completely eliminated. Here is how I think of this from the perspective of the body of Christ.

Imagine a person in the body of Christ calling out to Jesus because they are in pain or because of some other issue, and Jesus acknowledging that he hears them and giving them just a light touch. When we know he hears us we can rest and relax. It just takes one light touch from him to set us free.

Here is a scripture to meditate on today based on touchpoints.

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:14-16

As we take communion today let it be a time to remember that in our times of need we have a high priest that understands. We can come boldly to the throne of grace confident that just one light touch from him can turn it all around.

I am praying for you.

Daniel
