Jesus notices the people everyone else walks past - He cares, and He has the power to make them whole.

  • Jesus asked, "Do you want to get well?" Why do you think He asked? What would you ask Jesus for?
  • Jesus said doing good is always right, even on a rest day. When is a good time to do good for someone?
