Gen 28:10-22,Matt 9:18-26

From behind Jesus came
a woman

The official marched up during Jesus’ speech and bowed low. He knew how to get people’s attention. The woman came from behind and touched the fringe of his cloak. Both had faith and were favoured by the healing touch of Jesus; the woman did all she dared to do –it was more than enough. God accepts from us the slightest sign of our desire to be whole in order to heal us.
