 You’re thinking of a moment from the Gospels where sick people were healed by touching Jesus’ clothes.


The clearest example is the woman with the issue of blood:


She had been bleeding for twelve years and believed, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” When she touched the edge of Jesus’ garment, she was instantly healed. Jesus said, “Your faith has made you well.”

— found in Mark 5:25–34, Matthew 9:20–22, and Luke 8:43–48


There’s also a broader scene later on:


Wherever Jesus went, people begged him to let the sick touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.

— Mark 6:56


The key idea in these stories isn’t the clothing itself—it’s faith and trust in Jesus’ power, with the touch being an outward act of that faith.


If you want, I can:


  • Help you find the exact verse you’re thinking of
  • Explain the symbolism of the garment
  • Or help you turn this into a short sermon or reflection
