Mk.5:21-43, The daughter of Jairus

Today, the Gospel passage presents before us the miracle Jesus performed for the daughter of Jairus by raising her from death.We cannot imagine the joy that the family felt in the presence of Jesus.What nobody could do  on earth was done by Jesus for them.
The words of Jesus, Thalitha Koom are now addressed to each one of us.He is here to raise us from our stupor, from our failures and guilt.What a joy it will be  for   each one of us to hear the words of Jesus asking  us to rise from our spiritual lethargy. He is there to offer us life.Why should we be afraid?We don't  have to hang our head in shame.Instead, we can walk with confidence.
Jesus is always present in our life, offering us new life, hope and a new vision.
Like the lady suffering from the hemorrhage , let us touch the edge of his life to get back into the full vigor of our life.
Lord Jesus, be with me and protect me.
Thank you,Lord.
