Throughout the four Gospels, Jesus asks many different questions. It can sometimes be valuable to take the questions He asks and to sit for a brief time to reflect upon them.
Today’s Gospel passage includes one of those questions, “Who has touched my clothes?” Jesus’ disciples were perplexed by His question, “You see how the crowd is pressing upon you and yet you ask, ‘Who touched me?'” There were so many people touching Him.
However, Jesus knew that one person touched Him in an act of hope, as a final effort for healing. Many people were touching Him, but one deliberately reached out to make personal and physical contact with Him. When Jesus saw who it was, he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has saved you.”
The LORD is always passing by; He is always among us. Sometimes we barely notice Him. The woman in today’s Gospel shows us the power of a personal and deliberate reaching out to the LORD. This is how we can better experience His life-giving presence in our lives.+
