Thought For Today

And behold a woman who had suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years came up behind Him (Jesus) and touched the fringe of His garment; for she said to herself, “If I only touch His garment, I shall be made well.” Matthew 9:20, 21

Faith…. What a wonderful gift faith is. We are told if we have faith the size of a grain of mustard seed we can move mountains. We are also told that we can ask for more faith. This woman had faith. She believed if she could but touch the hem of Your garment Lord she would be healed. She had been hemorrhaging for twelve years. Obviously she had tried everything she knew to get well. And then You were there. She knew You had the healing ability. She reach out and touched You. AND she was healed.

I love this story Lord. I have loved telling it to the little children because it encourages them to believe too. At their little ages they learn to trust and that faith grows and grows. I know because I was that little child of eight that learned of Your love for me and those are lessons I am thankful for today.

Thank You Lord for faith. Thank You Lord that we can trust You. Thank You Lord for loving us unconditionally. We are grateful!

Thank You! Thank You Lord.
