Story Summary
Jairus, a ruler at the synagogue, came to Jesus because his 12-year-old daughter was dying. He begged Jesus to come to his house and heal his daughter.
As they walked to Jairus' house, the crowd pressed in on Jesus. A woman who had a disease that made her bleed touched Jesus and was healed instantly. Jesus asked, "Who touched me?" Reluctantly, the woman told Jesus that she had touched him. Jesus said, "Go in peace. Your faith has healed you."
On the way to Jairus' house, a messenger said that Jairus' daughter had died. Jesus said, "Just believe. She will be healed."
At the house, Jesus grabbed the little girl by the hand and said, "Little girl, get up!" Immediately, her spirit returned and she got up. Her parents were amazed!
