Mark 5:30-34 At once Jesus realized that power had gone
out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my
clothes?” “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples
answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?’ ” But Jesus kept looking
around to see who had done it. Then the woman, knowing what had happened to
her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole
truth. He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be
freed from your suffering.”
Can Jesus feel your faith? The woman who had an issue of
blood for 12 years was desperate for healing. She knew her only hope was Jesus.
Despite the crowds and her “unclean” status, she pushed through in faith. She
knew that even brief contact with Him would be worth the effort. How hard do
you work to pursue Christ? We take our accessibility to Christ – and His power
– for granted. We don’t need to push through crowds to get to Jesus. More than
likely, it is our own busyness that stands in the way. Push through the crowded
schedule of your life and reach out to Him in faithful prayer.
Powerful Savior, I desperately need You and the power faith
in You can bring. I pray my outstretched faith will be strong enough for You to
feel. Amen
