Day 68..."Touching the Hem of the Garment"

Leviticus, chapter 22, speaks of more regulations but does end with a passage which says keeping the Lord Holy is a way to be sanctified. The Psalmist states the Lord is the source of real strength..."He is the one who gives power and strength to his people." The Mark reading is life changing for the woman with bleeding for twelve years. Her faith just to "touch the hem of the garment" changed her life...and is a metaphor for healing in our life too. Our healing could be physical, emotional, or spiritual. We are body, spirit, and mind...and Jesus can make us whole. The hymn "He touched me" by Bill Gaither speaks of the wonder of God's healing touch. The healing of Jairus' daughter from the dead is even more captivating and Jesus continues the Messianic secret of Mark not to tell.
