Thirds...BEYOND

So yesterday we dealt with para (2)- today-
sort of obviously, we've moved to number (3)
as promised...please take the next two minutes
to take that in...and read the scripture reference
regarding the same at the end of the points:

(1)You have the feeling that someone
perhaps that person in line there,
over there, is looking at you?
You turn, but don't see anyone
staring at you, that you can notice
it's an odd feeling isn't it?

(2)You get to the party early and
as you are being introduced around
you have the oddest sense that you
have been here, doing this very
thing; even though you know, that's
silly because this is the only time
you have ever been here?

(3)You have heard about a hundred
sermons this year, in fact, by now
you pretty much know what the preacher
is going to say, and you begin to
tune 'em out; only just then suddenly
with crystal quickness, you feel,
rather than hear, what they are
saying, and you start to cry?

Mat 9:20 And, behold, a woman, which
was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years,
came behind [him], and touched the hem of his garment:
Mat 9:21 For she said within herself, If I may
but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
Mat 9:22 But Jesus turned him about, and
when he saw her, he said,
Daughter, be of good comfort;
thy faith hath made thee whole.
And the woman was made
whole from that hour.

To feel this story you have to climb
out of that box of life you've gotten
accustomesd to and realize, a woman
in this day was not to touch a man's
garment; especially a woman with an
issue of blood, a diseased person, and
a female; violated every standing law
on the books (No Doubt). So that
Jesus sensed her touching him,
He felt her, more than really was
aware of her.

Notice that in Christ there is no
legal review of the situation? To
the Master, reviewing the laws about
what she had done, apparently,
wasn't of any value? What seems
to have been important, was that
she discovered that He is indeed
every bit as powerful as it was told
about that He was. Shame we can't
get that into our hearts today,
isn't it? We all know people who are
lonely, who live in states of incomplete
love, who are stressed out, burnt out,
kicked in the teeth by life; sure, they
might not have issues of the blood,
but they have far deeper issues,
really; and what do you suppose
the Master would say to them?
If they could but touch the hem
of His garment?

Until tomorrow...let's pray
for one another.
