It’s revealing, the way that Jesus reacts to those he meets. Certainly he wished to bring wholeness to all, but he isn’t impressed by titles and status… or urgency, for that matter. When going to heal the daughter of a synagogue leader, he finds himself coming into contact with a woman who took control of her own healing, taking the initiative to touch him. Most of us, if we can even imagine knowing that we had just accidentally healed someone, would probably have kept going without stopping. Somewhere to be, after all. Not Jesus. He stopped, dead in his tracks, delaying the urgent situation, and looked for her. It must have taken a few minutes, because she realized she, “could not stay hidden.” Once she was found, he did more than heal her: he wanted to give her peace. That’s exactly what he did, and it could never have been the case if he hadn’t taken time for her.
