Mark 5:25-2825 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.
28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

Here is a woman in need, one that had been for 12 years. She tried everything known, everything that she could to take care of the problem. Finally she would try and touch Jesus so Jesus could touch her. In her favor Jesus had not been know for all of those 12 years. The public ministry of Jesus lasted for about 3 years, so Jesus had not been known all that time. But when she heard of Jesus, when she knew He was near she would try and touch Him. What is troubling you today dear friend? What is your need? Have you tried everything you can think of, everything you know to do? Have others tried to help you? Is there anything anyone can do? Have you reached out to Jesus? Have you battled through the press, struggled to get to Him, put away the fears and doubts, have you reached out to Jesus? Why not come to the Savior, why not bring the matter to the Lord, why not let Him touch you because you reached out to Him?
