And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.” Matthew 8:3 (KJV)   In today’s scripture, Jesus did what ordinarily no one would have done. A leper reached out to Him, and He touched him.

“Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.” Proverbs 16:24 (KJV)   Another love language is Words of Affirmation.
