Hearing and Personal Space

"Who touched me,"? asked Jesus.
"In this huge crowd,"? answered Peter.
  His personal space, of three feet,
  Was invaded by a faithful woman
  Praying to be healed.

  Can you hear Jesus' voice?
Then do not stand ten feet away!

Personal space: being intentionally less than three feet from someone if not soliciting help, in a line among persons in a crowd or allowing your dog to jump someone in a store. Proving that someone was or was not in the hearing distance of ten feet!
