Who Touched Me?

Throngs were pressing about Christ and He turned to ask- And Jesus

said, Who touched Me? 

When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng Thee and press Thee, and sayest Thou, Who touched me? Luke 8:45 

And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched Me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of Me. Luke 8:46 

And He looked round about to see her that had done this thing. Mark 5:32 

---While throngs of confessed followers are here, sending up prayers to the Lord, -break away from the pomp of sacraments and ceremonies- and with your prayers long to be one of those whom He leans over and looks down from heaven at the throng and asks "who touched Me?"and remember ..........for he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye. Zechariah 2:8

"It is possible to be in Christ's presence, and even to press close to Him, and yet recieve no blessing, because we touch Him only with the casual touch of the multitude."
