Physical trauma can create deep inner wounds and turmoil.. Even after the body is healed, the mind and emotion may need more time.

In today’s bible story we encounter a woman who endured twelve years of suffering. She lost all that she had trying to get well and was worse, not better. Her body was healed in an instant. The moment she touched the hem of Jesus Christ’s robe she was healed. Yet, she did not rejoice. Instead, she was filled with fear until she poured out the whole truth of what she had endured. Then, she was met not with condemnation or ridicule, but grace. We all have that opportunity. In the moment we pour out our hearts to God, healing of a deeper nature occurs.
