Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering

Mark 5:21-43

Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” So Jesus went with him. 

And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.”  Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.

But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. He said to her, Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”

He went in and said to them, “Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep.” But they laughed at him.

He took her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha koum!” (which means “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”). Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished. He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this, and told them to give her something to eat.

Why?
Jesus did a miracle among the people, and because of the faith of this flooding woman, her sick was healed.

Jesus is the source of life, only Jesus can give life and save our life. The synagogue leaders Jairu and the woman have faith that Jesus can solve their problem. 

All of Christians have eternal life, even getting older and dead, it is the body in this world, our spiritual life will return to the home of Jesus in Heaven.

How?

How wonderful to everyone who trusts in Jesus and has faith to follow Him, Keep our way with Jesus and doing good witness is our mission in this world.
