And Jesus said your sins are forgiven. Or if you read the Greek you could also translate this as you are able to leave behind you all those times you have missed the mark/ wandered off the path.
And the man arose and departed to his house. Such a simple phrase and one it is so easy to skip over. Of course he got up, he was healed! But it could also be translated as - "and he was raised from death to life, leaving evils and sufferings behind, to go to God's house that was now his own and join God's family."
What a day. The man had faith, he met Jesus and his life changed forever, both physically and spiritually.
Lord keep reminding me of what it really means to be forgiven, how life changing it really is, so I can understand how to really forgive others.
