"If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well."    Mark 5 25-34 NKJV

Let's take a closer look at this lady with the flow of blood. She had suffered for 12 years. There had been no relief from this sickness. We know how we feel when ailments go on for a few weeks, but 12 years is a long time, especially when she had spent all of her money putting her hope in many doctors, who had not helped at all. 

She had lost everything. If she had been married with children - which she may have been, she would have been forced to move out and probably have no more to do with them. How painful is that? She must have been so lonely and desperate. How did she manage for money? She wouldn't have been able to work and there was no DSS to help her out. It must have been a very miserable existence.
Everywhere she went, she would have been rejected - cast out and treated like a leper. There must have been times when she felt like giving up and ending it all. She literally had no future at all. 

Where do we go when we get this low? When there's nothing and no one left? This is how she would be feeling. And yet, something burned within her. There was a light flickering, faintly at first, but it was there. It was burning within her. Something like that is burning within you too, isn't it? The light is beginning to burn brighter, little by little. That special something to hang on to -  to rely upon. His name is Jesus. 

For this lady, He was the only answer and yet, so many people had let her down in her life. What if He did. She didn't know if she could trust Him. What if she went to Him and He told the authorities about her. She could be stoned by the crowd, who would be horrified because of her state of health. And yet, something told her, He was different. He wouldn't let her down - at all.

It was a frightening moment when she approached Him from behind and touched the hem of His garment. However, she received love, empathy, healing and care from this man called Jesus. He gave her back her dignity; her very existence. And He can you too.

There is a light flickering in you at this moment. Life has not been kind to you and you're hurting. You can do nothing about what you're going through. But Jesus can. Do you trust Him; I mean, really trust Him. Trust Him enough to approach Him and tell Him all about what you're going through. 

Deep down, you know that He's interested. Approach Him now. He's waiting. Give Him your burden, your fear and reach out and touch Him.

'Lord, I can do nothin about what is happening to me right now, but I know You can. Please help me. Please change this situation.................................. I need You Lord. Amen .

I would love to hear from you.    dailylifewithjesus@protonmail.com
