Jesus Acts of Healing

Jesus’ Acts of Healing

There never were any miraculous healings
Ramifying the existence of a god or heavenly king
Events entering the supernatural or metaphysical, none
Acts which contravened rational thought, not one 
There never was an external validation of divinity 
Making it motioned and pertinent to humankind 
Eclipsing character, personnality and functionality 
Negligent of the physical: muscle, nerve and neuron; 
That’s what I know for sure and I stand tall upon this call! 

At that, I believe Jesus to have been a medical doctor  
Never having miracles from god or any quick fixes
Definitely with plant mixes, resuscitation and exercise techniques.

There were plants which helped cure colds and other illnesses
Each one with a different solution and smell
Conversations with the parents that calmed them down;
He gave resuscitation to those thought dead
Never leaving them to die as society would allow;
Ingenious with paralytics he exercised their legs and arms
Quick to therapy them just when they were ready;
Using water, he washed the blind man’s eyes
Eyes dirty because this person had not known the daily wash -
Sure that his work could continue by others efforts.
