Mark 5:25-34

Mark 5:25

I. Human extremity the woman had suffered many years, and had spent all.

II. Human earnestness though much people thronged the Saviour, and she was weak, yet she found her way to the Healer.

III. Divine sensitiveness. Jesus Christ knew the difference between mere pressure and the touch of loving faith.

IV. Public confession. Thankfulness should always be courageous and explicit.

Parker, City Temple,1871, p. 93.
