touching the hem of Jesus' Garment
"...And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years, but no one could heal her. She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped. "Who touched me?" Jesus asked. When they all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the people are crowding and pressing against you." But Jesus said, "Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out from me." Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. Then he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace." Luke 8:43-48 (NIV)
Are you in a situation where you are desperate? Nothing has worked
no matter what you have tried? May you find peace and restoration in whatever
area you have need as you reach out to Jesus, whose love and life is what
is the remedy. May He reward your faith as you take the step to reach out
to touch Him. Onlookers may have varied responses, and may disapprove
of your unconventional approach to dealing with your situation, but the woman
who touched Jesus is the one who received the answer she needed!
