Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. And behold, there was a woman who had had a disabling spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not fully straighten herself. When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your disability.” And he laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and she glorified God.(Luke 13:10-13 ESV)
Along the journey with Jesus we have seen many people come and ask Him to heal or deliver, either themselves or a loved one. But on a few occasions, they do not ask; He commands. Of course, He knows our hearts; He knew why she was there and what she needed - there was an unseen affliction beyond her obvious physical one. He reached out to her, and He reaches out to you and me. May our response be the same as hers - Glorify God - let others know what He has done.
