Desperate For God

And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction." Mark 5:34

Part 3

How desperate are you for the things of God? Are you willing to do whatever it takes to receive from God? According to verse 26, this woman was desperate. Since she was getting continually worse, it seems logical to make the assumption her next step in the natural was death. But something got ahold of her. This dear woman had no training in living a faith life, yet she did everything the Bible tells us to do to receive from God. Verse 28 says "she said". I looked up other versions, and some say "she thought", and some say "she kept saying". I go with this last one. Verse 28 would read "For she kept saying". This is the most accurate picture of what she did. She said over and over and over and over the end result, and that is what she got.
