Many people pressed against Jesus as he approached Jairus’s house. It was virtually impossible to get through the crowd, but one woman with great faith fought desperately to touch Jesus. As soon as she did so, she was healed. What a contrast between the crowds curious about Jesus and the few who persistently seek him out with confident faith! Today, many people are vaguely familiar with Jesus, but nothing in their lives is changed or bettered by this passing acquaintance. Only genuine faith releases God’s healing power. Are you just curious about God, or will you sincerely reach out to him in faith, knowing that his mercy will bring healing to your body, soul, and spirit?
