—Mark 5:21-34
by: Katie Brown.
The woman with the blood issue had the faith to reach out and touch Jesus’ robe in order to be healed. This is a beautiful passage in which it seems from the narration that Jesus did not even know who He had healed in the crowd. But we know it was all a part of God’s sovereign plan. The woman’s life was changed that day because she reached out to Jesus for healing. Where do we “reach” when we are in need? Do we reach inside to our inner strength? Do we reach out for worldly solutions to our problems? Or do we reach out to Jesus, the only one who can truly help us?
