What made the woman`s faith so powerful? How does one obtain faith like the woman?
I think what he meant was that because she had faith she took action going to find Jesus and touching him. So Jesus healed her with the virtue/power inside of him.

Otherwise I am sure faith would be cruel and many would suffer for lack of it.

There is some power in faith but I dont know what it is.

A Dead Girl and a Sick Woman

While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."
Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples. Behold, a woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the tassels of his garment; for she said within herself, "If I just touch his garment, I will be made well."
But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, "Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour.
When Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd in noisy disorder, he said to them, "Make room, because the girl isn't dead, but sleeping."
They were ridiculing him. But when the crowd was put out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose. The report of this went out into all that land.
