"There was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years. She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet she was not helped but only grew worse. She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak. She said, "If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured." Immediately her flow of blood dried up. She felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction." Mark 5:25-29
Can you imagine living with an affliction for twelve years, trying ever cure and nothing working. The frustration and helplessness must of been great. Then you hear about Jesus, He is coming to heal a sick girl and you have heard about His abilities. "If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured." What if this Jesus is the answer, she would try anything to resolve this problem so she acted on faith. Sometimes God let's us deal with a problem until we run out of all resources and then we are ready for the Great Healer. In my own life, I had tried many different things to be happy and at peace but never did I full heartily try Jesus until four years ago. God knows the right time in each of our lives to make the biggest impact. Jesus is the answer, was the answer and will always be the answer. Have you met Him yet?
Dear Father God, You know everything in our lives and You know how and when to reach each person. We may not be hemorrhaging but Your people are afflicted. Show them Your Son Jesus in action, let them see how He has impacted others and how He is the answer. I pray for all that are carrying pain from their youth and causing issues in their life today. Heal them Lord, they are just like this woman in the story, have pity on them and send them Jesus. May they be just like her and be ready to live in peace with Jesus Christ in their heart. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Mary, Daughter of Zion, pray for us.
