[The woman who had constant bleeding for twelve years] had heard about Jesus, so she came up behind him through the crowd and touched his robe. For she thought to herself, "If I can just touch his robe, I will be healed." Immediately the bleeding stopped, and she could feel in her body that she had been healed of her terrible condition.
—Mark 5:27-29 NLT
Faith is an amazing thing! Jesus said that faith the size of a mustard seed could move a mountain. This woman's faith moved more than that. All she had was a "hem of the garment" sized faith, but it was more than enough. If you struggle with believing, remember that a little faith is a great start. Now act on it. Don't let it sit there and wither, but reach for the "hem of the garment" and begin there. God will grow your faith as you go!
Father God, please help the following people that I know are struggling with fully believing in Jesus... Please, dear God, use me and others in your family of faith to encourage them to step out on what faith they do have and let you grow it from there. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
