Touching the Hem of God by James Christensen 

 

Witness that magnificent moment of fulfillment connected with the grace of faith. Referred to in the book of Mark, this miracle speaks of the power of individual conviction and persistence, This woman's faith that even fleeting contact with Christ could cure the incurable is matched only by her resolve in making the event occur. So powerful is such faith that the frenzy of a pressing crowd dissolves before the touch of such a devoted human spirit and the virtue of Christ flows to it. (Mark 5:25-34).
