Season of Apostles

3	Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
4	who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
5	For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.
6	If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.
7	Our hope for you is unshaken; for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

25	And there was a woman who had had a flow of blood for twelve years,
26	and who had suffered much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was no better but rather grew worse.
27	She had heard the reports about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment.
28	For she said, "If I touch even his garments, I shall be made well."
29	And immediately the hemorrhage ceased; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.
30	And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone forth from him, immediately turned about in the crowd, and said, "Who touched my garments?"
31	And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, `Who touched me?'"
32	And he looked around to see who had done it.
33	But the woman, knowing what had been done to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him, and told him the whole truth.
34	And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease."
