When the woman touched him she did it with a powerful need, desire, and intention. Of course there was power in Jesus. Only she pulled the power out of him. We can, I believe, do the same. We can literally pull power right out of the ether.

THIS IS NOT THE WAY THIS MEDICINE IS SUPPOSED TO BE TAKEN. However, about 40 minutes max after taking it, I’m gone. I wake up in the morning with no side effects that I’m aware of.<br/><br/>A couple of years ago my doctor prescribed Xanax for mild anxiety. I didn’t notice it helping with that, but it did make me too sleepy during the day to get enough done. After a couple of weeks, I stopped abruptly, which one is not supposed to do either, because this can cause withdrawal symptoms. I didn’t notice any. (FWIW, I used to smoke an occasional cigarette, and, like you, never had an urge to make them a habit, or felt bad when I gave them up for good.)<br/><br/>Exercise, diet, and mental disciplines are better alternatives, but sometimes a person needs to see her doctor. Always follow your doctor’s instructions is usually good advice.<br/><br/>http://psyweb.com/Drughtm/jsp/xanax.jsp Conventional wisdom rightly discourages giving this type of advice, but here it is anyway.

I think it is called Shamanic Christianity by Bradford Keeney, or something very like that. Yeah, yeah, I know..... Shamanic everything these days. I half expect to see advertisements for Shamanic Auto Mechanics or Shamanic Hairdressers... Nonetheless, Keeney makes some interesting applications of his studies of indigenous cultures to Christian practice.
