Mark 5:21–24 (NKJV)

²¹Now when Jesus had crossed over again by boat to the other side, a great multitude gathered to Him; and He was by the sea.

²²And behold, one of the rulers of the synagogue came, Jairus by name. And when he saw Him, he fell at His feet

²³and begged Him earnestly, saying, “My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live.”

²⁴So Jesus went with him, and a great multitude followed Him and thronged Him.

God fits our souls here to possess a glorious body after;
and he will fit the body for a glorious soul.

Our bodies shall be like Christ’s glorious body, not equal to it.

Bless God that there is in us resurrection life,
and that there awaits us a resurrection.

We are more sure to arise out of our graves than
out of our beds.
