“Courage! Your faith has saved you.”
– Matthew 9: 22
The passage above is the response of Jesus to a woman who said to herself, “If only I can touch his cloak, I shall be cured.”
Here is the whole story taken from the gospel of Matthew 9:20-22.
A woman suffering hemorrhages for twelve years came up behind him and touched the tassel* on his cloak.
She said to herself, “If only I can touch his cloak, I shall be cured.”
Jesus turned around and saw her, and said, “Courage, daughter! Your faith has saved you.” And from that hour the woman was cured.
