Woman With An Issue
by Kristenea M. LaVelle (Kristenea's bio)


"And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, when she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, if I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole."
Mark 5:25-28


Perhaps, like this woman, you are facing some issues that have been a part of your life for a long time. You've done your best to "get by" all this time, but these issues continue to haunt your thoughts, robbing you of your peace of mind. It seems you've been searching forever for a cure, only to find your state unchanged. The doctors, and all the money you have couldn't deliver you from these things that plague your body, mind and soul, working to cripple your walk with God. You may be asking yourself, "What do I do next and where do I go from here? Who can help me in my distress?"

There is an answer for you today! It is the same answer this woman found some 2,000 years ago, when she boldly reached for the edge of the garment worn by our Savior, Jesus Christ. Having tried everything else, in desperation, she humbly made her way through the crowd to where He was. In an instant, she found the healing she had longed for and she was made whole! "…and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague." Mark 5:29. Complete restoration for the suffering soul. Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual healing can be found at the feet of the Savior.

So, you may be asking "What is my part in all this?" Well, you need to begin by recognizing the issues that are plaguing your body, mind, spirit and soul. Understand that all the material goods and money you possess are helpless to deliver you from your sufferings and restore you to a completely whole individual, that only comes from Jesus. Pursue God with your entire being and be willing in your heart to forsake whatever it takes to find the answers you are seeking. Believe in the things of God and let your faith rest in the power of God for deliverance and restoration. Then, reach through the crowd and take hold of the garments of righteousness worn by Jesus and believe for a miracle! He could be speaking these things to you:

"Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague." Mark 5:34
