I recently read Matthew 9:20-22.
“Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.” Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “Your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed from that moment.

This passage breaks my heart; this woman had so faith that it healed her. I think about all the things that bother me or the things keep me up at night. I want the faith to go to Jesus and say, “Lord, I trust You. If I just touch your cloak i know I will be healed of anything. You are the alpha and omega.”

It so hard for me to just move forward from those pains. I know God won’t heal everything but he can use us. This lady was so simple in faith but so powerful in her love and faith in her Savior. Imagine if we had faith just like that, faith to really understand that God can heal us and take away any pain that we feel, even if He doesn’t always choose to do it. Why, Lord, why can’t we be like this all the time? I feel like sometimes we just don’t take the steps to just have faith. We know the end yet we sit here and sit in our own self pity, thinking we’re fine.

We have a Savior that is amazing. So what if we’re not were we thought we would be; we are at his feet which is so much better. Yeah, some people may have more, but let’s be people who are thankful and have a simple faith that can heal. Take heart my friend; your faith has saved you.
