She Touched The Hem Of His Garment Poem by Royston Allen

She Touched The Hem Of His Garment



For many years this woman sought healing.
Then she came to Jesus in secret feeling
It’s the hem of His garment that I need touch
I know He can heal me so it won’t take much.

I will mingle with the crowd to get near
Then reach out to Him, there’s nothing to fear.
There's no need for anyone else to know
I can just stretch my arm and touch Him so.

So she made her way through the crowd that day
and reached out to Him as He passed her way.
With her trembling hand she had touched His cloak.
thinking no one knew until He spoke.

“Your faith has healed you” Jesus had said.
and from that moment she no longer bled.
When it happened, she felt the healing stream
flow into her fulfilling her wildest dream.

There was no need to speak or say a word
She had reached out in faith and touched the Lord.
For even in the crowded street that day
Jesus met her needs as He passed her way.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Matthew 9: 20-22
And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and touched the hem of His garment. For she said to herself, “If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well.” But Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, “Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.
