  2. Exposition

How does Mark alert us to the astonishing power of Jesus?

Mark 5:29–30 (ESV)

29 And immediately the flow of blood dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.

The moment the woman makes physical contact with Jesus, she is healed. Immediately something is triggered inside both of them.1 For the woman it is the realization that her twelve year journey is over. One simple touch has healed her completely. Jesus feels power going out from him.
