Jesus Heals a Woman
From Mark 5:25–34.
A woman had been very sick for 12 years. Doctors could not help the woman. One day she saw Jesus surrounded by many people. The woman believed she would be healed if she touched Jesus’s clothes. The woman walked through the people and touched Jesus’s clothes. The woman was healed. There were many people near Jesus, but He knew that somebody had touched Him. “Who touched my clothes?” Jesus asked. The woman was afraid. She knelt in front of Jesus. The woman told Jesus that she had touched Him. Jesus was not angry with the woman. Jesus told the woman her faith had healed her.
