I imagine Jesus cradling her face in His hands, looking her in the eyes, and declaring His delight over her. “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.”[4] See, it wasn’t enough for Jesus to heal her; He wanted a relationship with her. He stopped in the midst of a crowd and noticed a woman who had been ostracized all her life. He didn’t just want her to stop bleeding; He wanted to look her in the eyes and connect with her and begin a relationship with her. Using intimate language: “Daughter.”
