A Woman And Her Faith

I love the story in Mark 5:25-34. It is about a woman and her faith.

A woman that is never mentioned by name had been sick for twelve years and had spent all of her money going to many physicians, but no one could help her. She heard that Jesus was close by and in her desperation and faith, she knew that if she could get close enough to touch His clothes that she would be healed. "If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole." v28. The woman pressed through the multitude of people and got close enough to touch His garment, and she felt in her body that she was healed. She thought I will quietly slip back out of this crowd and be happy and blessed. She was surprised when Jesus turned around and asked, "Who touched my clothes?" v30. You see, Jesus realized at once that His healing power had gone out from Him. Trembling and afraid she fell before Him and told Him the truth. She explained her faith in His power. Jesus said, "Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole..."v34.

A woman and her faith and now a daughter to Jesus. Her life changed. She was well, and it was because of her faith in Jesus.

Love in Christ,
