Jairus, a prestigious ruler in the synagogue, can’t help his dying daughter, so he humbly goes to Jesus. They learn she has already died, but Jesus goes to her anyway.
Mark 5:41-42 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise. And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.
I have often been amazed at the power and compassion of our Lord. He has the ability to not only meet, but exceed our expectations.
When you face situations that are beyond your control, and they are many, trust Jesus. He will never fail.
I’m glad there is hope for those who believe in faith. Honor Jesus with your faith and expect Him to do the unexpected.
