They changed the course of history. They taught us to love and value each other. They guide the very lives we desire to live.
Matthew 9:20-22Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, "If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed."
Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart, daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed from that moment.
I can picture myself in her shoes. Desperate.
She had probably been taught from a young age the promises of the coming Messiah. She believed. In all her agony, she knew all she had to do was touch him. I admire her faith and desire it daily.
To know his promises so deeply. To trust the knowledge of his words to reach out for Him. There is so much in this life we all need healing from, be it spiritual or physical. What are you reaching for? Where is your faith?
I pray you learn to know His word and write the promises on your heart. He wants to heal you, to love you.
