Who touched me?

“Jesus knew at once that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and said, ‘Who touched my clothes?’” Mark 5.30.

The woman cured by Jesus could not remain anonymous. Nor can we, once we have touched the saving power of Christ’s blood, remain quiet.

MORE: Whether it be shame, or fear, or selfishness, Christ draws us out. He not only heals our hearts, but places us squarely in the midst of the crowd. Our impurity is cleansed, our place restored, our life given purpose to declare the power of God to those who need it.
