‘Who touched me?’

‘Who touched me?’ (Luke 8:45)

The woman in need touched Jesus. It was her faith that just a touch of Jesus' garments could heal what no doctor had been able to do for twelve years. Touching just the fringe of Jesus' garment restored her to health. It was just a slight touch when a huge crowd was pushing against Jesus to get near to hear what He might say. That touch though, was special for Jesus felt it and asks: ‘Who touched me?’

Daily people may push against us and life may be really pushing us; but do we seek to touch Jesus? This might be the time to seek to touch even just the fringe of His garment to receive a blessing like never before.

We know the specialness of a touch from a loved one; come to know the touch of Jesus! Someone did when they sat and wrote, "He Touched Me." You may have a song to share about His touch upon you!

‘What are you discussing with each other while you walk along?’

‘What are you discussing with each other while you walk along?’ (Luke 24:17) This is from the story called the Walk to Emmaus. The resurrected Jesus meets two believers on the road to the village Emmaus discussing all the events of Good Friday. They did not know what to make of all they saw and experienced, and certainly did not expect Jesus in their midst. But, Jesus joins them and listens and asks, ‘What are you discussing with each other while you walk along?’ That question led to His answering all their questions and blessing their faith. Do we allow Jesus to answer our questions, especially during times of doubt and trials? Jesus knows the answer and for many of us, Jesus is the answer. (Add your own question and see if Jesus can't be the answer!)

How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them?

How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? (Matthew 9:15) There is rarely much sadness at a wedding, unless your first sister to wed gets married. The other day, Nellie and our youngest and I had a good laugh as she remembered her big sister's wedding. She was opposed not to the wedding, but to the fact that she was losing her sister from the household. I thank God my daughters are all very close, and love one another, so it was a sign to us that "losing" one was not a pleasant ordeal. But Jesus knew that in the wedding that is to come, where He is the groom and we, the church, are the bride, there will be no sadness. And during his time here on the earth, it was a time of preparation for this wedding and in His heart was great joy and excitement; for those whom God created for His purposes, would be reunited in that paradise relationship God so desires for us. And during His ministry, Jesus calls all to come to the relationship. Yet, He k...

If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? (John 21:22)

If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Image from bandofbrothersdevotional.com Peter asked Jesus a question about "the beloved disciple," who was John. Peter wanted to know what would happen to John. Jesus replied with the question: If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? And the question was immediately followed by a command, "Follow me!" We can preoccupy ourselves with matters about other people, but the question Jesus asks is about us and what we are doing. And the same command follows that: Follow me! We have barely enough time to worry about our spiritual life, why spend too much time worrying about those for whom we can probably do nothing for? It's like the airline procedure; make sure you're first, then help out. But, Jesus still says, "Follow me!" Dear friends, thank you for reading these points. This was the last question asked by Jesus and so this ends this blog. I have...
