BIBLE TRIVIA-Who had a daughter named Jemima? Yesterday's answer-Jehosheba SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY LUKE 8:40-56 Jesus Gives Life to a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman 40 When Jesus got back to Galilee, a crowd welcomed him, because everyone was waiting for him.41 A man named Jairus, a leader of the synagogue, came to Jesus and fell at his feet, begging him to come to his house.42 Jairus' only daughter, about twelve years old, was dying. While Jesus was on his way to Jairus' house, the people were crowding all around him. 43 A woman was in the crowd who had been bleeding for twelve years, but no one was able to heal her. 44 She came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of his coat, and instantly her bleeding stopped. 45 Then Jesus said, "Who touched me?" When all the people said they had not touched him, Peter said, "Master, the people are all around you and are pushing against you." 46 But Jesus said, "Someone did touch me, because I felt power go out from me." 47 When the woman saw she could not hide, she came forward, shaking, and fell down before Jesus. While all the people listened, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. 48 Jesus said to her, "Dear woman, you are made well because you believed. Go in peace." 49 While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue leader and said to him, "Your daughter is dead. Don't bother the teacher anymore." 50 When Jesus heard this, he said to Jairus, "Don't be afraid. Just believe, and your daughter will be well." 51 When Jesus went to the house, he let only Peter, John, James, and the girl's father and mother go inside with him. 52 All the people were crying and feeling sad because the girl was dead, but Jesus said, "Stop crying. She is not dead, only asleep." 53 The people laughed at Jesus because they knew the girl was dead. 54 But Jesus took hold of her hand and called to her, "My child, stand up!" 55 Her spirit came back into her, and she stood up at once. Then Jesus ordered that she be given something to eat.56 The girl's parents were amazed, but Jesus told them not to tell anyone what had happened. I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
