Matthew 9: 20-22....Mark 5:25-34....Luke 8:43-48...
I just love the visual I get every time I read these scriptures. They were written 3 times in the new testament. Certainly they must be very important to God. Once you've tasted the love, grace, and mercy of God, you just want "More."
What faith this women had. She knew if she could just touch the robe of Jesus she would be healed of her illness. I remember quite a few years back, I put on a play with different scenes of the stories of Jesus. In one of them, I picked a little boy who was laying down playing sick, and when Jesus walked by he reached out and touched His robe and was healed. Little did I know that this little boy was really very sick at one time. The family prayed for healing, and it was God's will to heal him. I remember after the play, the mother came up to me crying and told me his story. Pretty amazing to me that God choose this little boy for the part that I knew nothing about what he went through.
Life isn't a play. It's very real and so is Jesus. He is the Living God! The same yesterday, today, and forever! He still heals, comforts, and gives peace beyond understanding.
I love this journey with Jesus through life, but I can't help but want "More." I can't get enough of all He has to offer and show me of His greatness, love, and power. I want to receive what He desires to offer me, not in part, but in whole.
There is nothing more in life that I desire, than for Jesus to reach into my heart and heal every part of me. To know the fullness of Who He is inside all my weakness.
