Mark 5:27 – Part 1: Hearing about Jesus
When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him
in the crowd and touched His garment.
Can you imagine what this lady felt like when she heard about Jesus? In the previous verses, we looked at what this lady went through. We looked at some of the possible emotions, fears and disappointments she went through. If there is one thing we have learned so far it is that this lady has had the most horrendous time for the last 12 years. Then she begins to hear about Jesus. She begins to learn that in an instant He can reverse the last 12 years of her life. Things won’t get worse. She won’t suffer anymore. She doesn’t need any money. It would almost seem too good to be true!
But she kept hearing. When she kept hearing, faith kept coming. When faith kept coming, there came a point when deliverance was inevitable.
