Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus’s Daughter Pt.2

In Mark 5:21-24 and 35-43, we see the story of Jairus, who approached Jesus to heal his daughter. Unfortunately, Jesus was delayed; by the time he arrived, Jairus' daughter had already passed away. Despite this, Jesus told Jairus to "DO NOT FEAR, ONLY BELIEVE." What followed next was a miraculous event demonstrating the power of Jesus's touch that brought the girl back to life.
