🌸 Evening in Bethany (Episode 5)

The Daughter of Jairus Rises Again

The evening at Bethany was as quiet as always.
The sun had already slipped beyond the hills,
and the sky beyond the window was painted with a soft rose glow.
Inside Martha’s house, a single lamp burned gently,
casting warm light over the disciples’ faces.

On the table lay bread, wine, and a deep, peaceful silence.
John folded his hands and spoke softly.

“Lord, as I watched the children playing in the courtyard today,
I suddenly remembered that day —
the day You went to Jairus’s house.”

Jesus set down His cup and smiled tenderly.
“The girl of that day still lives.
Her laughter still echoes in heaven.”

🕊️ The House of Despair

Peter began to speak slowly.
“That day, everyone was drowning in despair.
Jairus, the synagogue leader — a man of great respect —
had laid down all dignity and ran to You.
‘My little daughter is dying; come and lay Your hands on her so she may live.’
Tears filled his eyes.”
