Come and Believe. Mark 5: 21-34

In this passage, we encounter two desperate individuals whose stories intertwine to reveal a profound truth about faith: when we face our most helpless moments, especially in sickness and death, we are called simply to come to Jesus and believe. The synagogue ruler Jairus risks his reputation and leaves his dying daughter to find Jesus in a crowd, while a woman who has suffered for twelve years with an incurable condition believes that merely touching Jesus' garment will heal her. Both demonstrate remarkable faith not by having all the answers or by cleaning themselves up first, but by going directly to Jesus in their brokenness. This passage challenges us to examine what holds us back from coming to Jesus immediately with our struggles. Is it pride, wanting to fix things ourselves first? Is it fear or lack of faith that He can actually help? The central question Mark poses 'Who is this that even the wind and seas obey?' is answered powerfully: Jesus rules over sickness and death itself. Yet the real invitation goes deeper than acknowledging His power. We are called not just to come and believe, but to trust completely in His good and perfect will, even when outcomes differ from our prayers. This trust is what transforms our daily experience, bringing peace and joy regardless of circumstances, as we walk with a Savior who never allows anything outside His loving purposes for our lives. https://redeemerbardstown.org/
