Mark 6:53-56

 

The Gospel says that those who even so much as touched his cloak would be healed. We might be the “tassel of Jesus’ cloak” today that someone in need of a kind word or listening ear can grab on to. We might provide the “touch” of healing that mends a broken heart or devastated spirit. We do not have to possess Jesus’ wondrous power of healing, just his understanding compassion and loving concern that moves us to help.
