Episode 220: Matthew 9 Part 3 Who’s Laughing Now?

Jesus was having a conversation with some of John the Baptizer’s disciples when they were interrupted by a leader from the synagogue named Jairus. His 12 year old daughter was dying and he knew his only hope was to find Jesus and have him come to his house and lay his hands on her so he could heal her sickness before she died. Everything was going great until a woman with an issue of blood interrupted the mission. She had been bleeding for 12 years and was instantly healed when she touched Jesus’ clothes. He stops to have a conversation with the woman and while they were talking, Jairus gets news that his daughter died. He had lost all hope but Jesus tells him to not be afraid and to have faith. When they arrive at the house Jesus tells the paid mourners that the girl is asleep and they laugh at him to his face. He sends them out, then raises Jairus’ daughter back to life! Who’s laughing now?
