Seeker Overlay ON
*
Jesus crossed over the sea again to the other side .
Many people came to him while he was near the water .
*
One of the rulers of the meeting house came to him .
His name was Jairus .
When he saw Jesus ,
he kneeled down before him .
*
He said ,
My little daughter is dying .
I beg you ,
come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live .
*
So Jesus went with Jairus .
Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him .
*
A woman among them had a sickness for twelve years .
She was bleeding all the time .
*
Many doctors tried to heal her .
She spent all the money she had to pay them .
She was not better ,
but was getting worse .
*
When she heard of Jesus ,
she came among the people behind him .
Then she reached out and touched his clothes .
*
She said to herself ,
If only I touch his clothes ,
I will be well .
*
The bleeding stopped right away .
She could feel that she was healed of her trouble .
*
Jesus knew right away that power to heal went out from him .
He turned around among the people and said ,
Who touched my clothes ?
*
But his disciples said to him ,
You see all these people pushing around you .
Why do you ask , "
Who touched me ?"
*
He looked around to see who had done it .
*
The woman was afraid and trembled .
She knew what had happened to her .
She kneeled down in front of Jesus and told him the truth about herself .
*
He said to her ,
Daughter ,
you were healed because you believed .
Go and do not be troubled .
You are healed .
*
While Jesus was still talking ,
some people came from the rulers house .
They said ,
Your daughter has died .
Why trouble the Teacher any more ?
*
Jesus heard it .
He said to the ruler ,
Do not fear .
Only believe .
*
Jesus did not let anyone go with him only Peter ,
James ,
and his brother John .
*
They came to the rulers house .
Jesus saw that there was trouble .
People were crying and making much noise because the rulers daughter had died .
*
When he came into the house ,
he said to them ,
Why do you make so much noise and cry ?
The girl is not dead ,
but is sleeping .
*
They laughed at him .
So he sent them all outside .
Then he took the girls father and mother and the three disciples into the room where the girl was lying .
*
He took her hand and said ,
Talitha cumi !
That means ,
Little girl ,
I tell you ,
get up !
*
The girl got up right away and walked around .
She was twelve years old .
The people were very much surprised .
*
Jesus said ,
Do not tell anyone about this .
Give the girl something to eat .
