August 20, 2015 - “And there was a woman who had had a discharge of blood for twelve years, and though she had spent all her living on physicians, she could not be healed by anyone. 44) She came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately her discharge of blood ceased. 45) And Jesus said, "Who was it that touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!" 46) But Jesus said, "Someone touched me, for I perceive that power has gone out from me."47) And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed. 48) And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace." (Lk. 8:43-48).
How many people today have had a twelve year old problem that hasn't been fixed? Just like people today this woman tried everything that was available to her but nothing worked. The only remedy to her twelve year old problem and failed attempts of fixing it was Jesus.
People today will go years dealing with a problem or problems that are unfix-able. The only remedy is Jesus. Not until this woman went to Jesus did her twelve year old problem get fixed.
The same is true for all of us today. Don't let a problem take years of your life away from you. Jesus is the Great Physician and it is only He that is ready, willing and able to fix what no one and nothing else can.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29) Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30) For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" (Matt. 11:28-30).
