To me, one of the most moving accounts of Jesus is found in Luke 8. A woman who had hemorrhaged for many years was following Him amid a large crowd. She reached out and touched the hem of His garment in hope of being cured. At that moment her flow stopped.
Several things stir my heart about this scene. First, this was a woman whose condition meant whomever she touched would be “unclean” and prohibited from worship at the Temple for a stated period of time.
