She Touched Him

One of my favorite stories in all the Bible is found in Luke chapter 8, verses 43-48.

It’s the story of the woman who had been hemorrhaging for 12 years. Think about it! Twelve years! She must have been desperate! So desperate that she pushed through the crowd.  Think about what that must have been like!

I’m trying to visualize that scene. It must have been painful for her to push through that group of people. So many times, desperation produces determination. She could either live with her pain, or push through her pain. And since it says that she touched the hem of His garment, did she have to get on her hands and knees? If so, she could have been trampled on. But the moment she touched Him, she was made whole!

I’m wondering, how desperate are we? Are we willing to push through and persevere in prayer? All of us are praying for a miracle of some kind! It may be financial, physical or even something else! I challenge you today! Push through! Be persistent! Persevere! Your answer is coming!
