Scripture
Luke 8:47 Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was immediately healed.
Observation
After her healing came her testimony, mostly because she was put on the spot. An embarrassing testimony in front of many people. Jesus then granted her not only the healing but also joy and peace.
Application
How many times have I failed to relate what God has done for me? In doing so I rob others of a faith building experience. I may also be missing out on my entire blessing of joy, peace or whatever else God has for me as I share His goodness. Relating His goodness should be my lead-in to any conversation.
Prayer
Father, prompt me to share of your goodness with those I come into contact with. Let what you do in my life be an encouragement to others. Not only the blessings I receive but also the trials that you take me through.
