The Touch of Class

This story of the woman with the issue of blood can be summarized as one of great sorrow and happiness. All medicine failed until she met the Ultimate “Dr. Jesus”. She suffered emotional stress, loneliness, isolation and financial stress for 12 years; she was doomed. She heard of the man called Jesus, out of desperation she eventually decided if only she could get near enough by faith, to touch His garment she would be made whole.
I. This special touch can a) lower our stress level and b) convey love and affection. She was spiritually strong and determined, had great faith and a planned objective in what she was about to do. If we have that kind of faith in God, He is ready and willing to help us in whatever position we find ourselves. Listen to God’s words and He will heal us physically and spiritually.
II. God completes that healing process, it is a touch of class, a touch of salvation, life eternal and complete transformation. “Who touched me? Jesus asked, it was a simple touch, but yet a personal one. Jesus called her “my daughter”, “my child”. She immediately became a child of God, a part of His kingdom. Jesus’ touch gives us the power to discover who we are through His faith. Reach out and touch someone, tell them that you love them. We need to rise up and touch lives, doing service for God. Become new as God’s children working and doing the will of God.


THOUGHT
Live the life of God so others can see God manifested in you.
