He said that she should be given something to eat

“He gave strict orders that no one should know this and said that she should be given something to eat.” (MK 5: 43)

Our Lord didn’t ask them to remember a miracle they had experienced, or that they should be always grateful; He “said that she should be given something to eat.” This is true love, which takes care of others, thinks about everything, and remembers that we are human beings. An important part of protecting our relationship is also a necessity to remember about our human nature which needs to be protected also by proper nutrition. 

“Christ took away our infirmities and bore our diseases.” (Gospel Acclamation)
