"They laid the sick in the marketplace and begged (Jesus) that they might touch only the tassel on his cloak; and as many as touched it were healed."
Mark 6:56
That wasn't the way Jesus liked doing things. Jesus much preferred talking to each person he healed, looking into their eyes and asking, "What do you want me to do for you?" Walking through the crowd having his tassels touch and heal wasn't the way he liked it, but with the crowds and their tremendous faith, well, that's the way it worked out. What about us? Do we have the time for the one-on-one encounter with Jesus? Do we make the time to just sit and encounter? Or do we only have time for the tassel-touch? Because of the strong faith of the people, Jesus healed with the touch of his tassel, but he'd much rather have an encounter. Let's make time today for a real encounter! Love, heidi
