Faith with peace and joy

Mark 5:21-34
Ignoring what they said, Don't be afraid; just believe.
A sick woman almost lost her hope to healing her bleeding for 12 years, she thought touch the clock of Jesus she could be healed, she did and immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.
Jesus let crowd know how great this woman's faith in Jesus, so her sick was healed.
Jesus actively took dead girl's hand and said to her "Little girl, I say to you get up!" Immediately the girl stood up and walked around.
Many crowd did not catch the real worthy of faith in Jesus.
To stories run in parallel; both are about females, about faith, and about people beyond the help of doctors.
Why?
Jesus's healing are immediately completed.
Faith is ignoring what other's said, just believe and don't be afraid. Sometime it could be missing in our own mind, but if it should be compatible with principle of Bible.
Jesus is the God of life, he has power over life and dead. Only one who came from heaven has this great power.
As a woman she is in any case regarded as a 'second-class citizen', but not by Jesus. Jesus' clock has no magic properties. He knows the difference between the casual contact of the crowd and someone reaching our in need.The woman's faith not only leads to her physical healing; it saves her.
Jairus is a big man in the local community, came to Jesus shows that not all religious leaders were against him. Because of his trust in Jesus his little girl is brought back to life.
Faith like the sick woman need mind and behavior to show it.
How?
Follow Jesus need the faith in every difficult things, I believe Jesus can help me in his way with peace and joy. Like these two females, went in peace and freed from suffering.
