He was in a rush; everyone was…

The Torah said blood was the unit of life, but I wonder why I could still be living.

Everyone was too busy to realize I wasn't even meant to be there in the first place.

But for 12 years, I have been in a rush too. Fighting for my life.

The Torah said blood was the unit of life, but I wonder why I could still be living. Why did I hold on the hem of medicine, when non worked?

I was already considered unclear, unworthy, not holy.

But He called me courageous. He saw me…

I could not call myself those names. But I could reach out for His hem in the rush.

His name is Jesus.

~The woman with the issue of blood, Matthew, 9; Mark, 5; Luke, 8.
