Prayer and Faith

Today at church one of the pastor's sons preached from Mark. It's the passage that talks about the woman touching Jesus' robe and instantly being healed and also Jesus bringing Jairus' daughter back to life.
You know what struck me the most from this passage that I hadn't noticed before? It was that the woman who had been bleeding for 12 years had been to doctors and instead of getting better she got worse. Yet, when she touched Jesus' robe she was immediately healed.
I'm not against doctors at all - you can ask anyone on my team here. I'm always telling them to go get the hook-up on antibiotics so that I don't get sick from whatever they have. And, I have an entire "pharmacy" in my pantry that is used by my team everyweek. My cousin is a doctor, one of my closest friends is a nurse. I'm a fan of doctors. Believe me. So I'm not trying to say that it was the doctor's faults that this woman wasn't healed through their efforts or mediciations, or that we should ban all doctors because of this passage in scripture. No, definitely not saying that.
What I am saying is that we allow ourselves to think that our doctors and their treatments are it for us sometimes. If the doctor says 3 weeks to live then we more often than not just see the three weeks. God is so much bigger than that. He can heal - just this woman touching his cloak completely healed her.
I think I've been thinking about this more often than not lately because one of my neighbor's has been given this same diagnosis. He has tumors up and down his spine and his battle with cancer has been over a few years now. His wife came to me last week asking if I could get her a wheelchair for him, he can barely walk. She told me that he wouldn't need the wheelchair for very long because he's not expected to live very long. I asked her, after dropping a wheelchair off this weekend, what else I could do for them. She said that there was nothing - all they needed was this wheelchair and 'health'. I told her we will pray for that but after today's sermon I think I need to make a more active commitment of that. If I can bring Jesus' cloak to them and if they will just touch it - I believe this man's diagnosis can turn IMMEDIATELY around.
Please pray for me as I really want to have the courage and faith to do this...
