Are You Facing a Diagnosis?
Jesus
encountered a woman who had been bleeding for twelve years. She spent
everything she had on doctors. She was isolated from her community because of
being ‘unclean’ due to the bleeding. She felt hopeless until she heard Jesus
was coming by her village. A spark of hope burned as she did the
unthinkable—she joined the crowd so she could touch the edge of His cloak. That
simple act brought healing to her—body, mind and spirit. She was able to join
her family again. Her hopelessness was transformed into hope because of Jesus.
(Matthew 9:20-22, Luke 8:43-48, Mark 5:25-34)

There was a
widow who gathered sticks to make a fire to prepare a last meal for herself and
her son. Elijah told her to make a small cake for him first so that her oil and
flour supply would never run out. Out of her desperation, hope clung to the
possibility that the prophet’s words were true. So, she took her last bit of
ingredients and in obedience prepared the meal. His words held true and her
food supply lasted through the time of drought in the land. God cared for her
needs even when it didn’t make sense. (1 Kings 17:9-16)
God is able
to accomplish everything that concerns you…Psalm 57:1-2, Psalm 138:8. And He
will do more than we can think or imagine possible.
Reading the
encounters of those who met Jesus, gives insight into His hope, given to
everyone He met.
Have you met
Jesus? He has hope for you too!
Do you have
a favorite story from the Bible? How did it speak to you in the midst of your
own situation?
