Itโs not over, until Jesus says itโs over.
All the odds were against him. His daughter was dying. Jesus promised, โDonโt be afraid, just believe.โย So many were the obstacles in the way of his miracle. He was in a hurry. Please let the crowds disperse, he wished, itโs an emergency! โPlease hurry Jesus!โ, he wanted to say. He couldnโt get to do it. And then the woman with the issue of blood touches Him. Jesus asks, โWho touched me?โย Further delay. By now news arrives that his daughter is dead.ย Now he is desperate.ย He said, โjust believeโ, didnโt He?ย Finally, Jesus goes with him to his house. He sees people wailing and mourning. Jesus says โSheโs only sleeping.โย The people begin to mock now and Jesus throws them out and raises Jairusโ daughter back to life.
No situation is so desperate that Jesus cannot work. Disease, delays, and even death are under His control. Jesus goes with you to the place of disappointment and sorrow and meets your needs. No matter how depressing your situation may appear like Jairus, "Do not be afraid; only believeโ.
