But as Debra and Cherie said, Jesus knows us individually and is always there. I'm ashamed to admit that sometimes I don't live as if I believe that. And what if I treated others as if I believed it, like you said, Connie?

What a beautiful, thought-provoking post. I do find that you never know the heart or trials of the people around you. It's amazing what you learn with just a kind word, a question or a moment--to walk in anothers' shoes.

What wonderful love - that Jesus is willing to help this woman come to such deep and full healing knowing that His closest friends probably won't even understand at the moment.

I think Jesus knew who'd touched Him, but He wanted her to leave His presence knowing she wasn't just healed of her affliction, but she was loved and saved, too.

They may think not but maybe it's just been buried too deep.<br /><br />I don't think Jesus was asking "who touched me?" because he didn't know. I think he was asking, to prompt her to take that step of admitting it to herself and to him that she needed helpDebra E.
