TOPIC: God’s Heart for Hurting Parents
Jairus heard two voices and had to choose which one to heed. The first, from the servants in Luke 8:49, “Your daughter is dead.” The second, from Jesus in verse 50, “Don’t be afraid.”
We need to know what Jesus will do when we entrust our kids to him. In the case of the story of Jairus, Jesus united the household (vs. 51). “…he let only Peter, John, James, and the girl’s father and mother go inside with him.” Next, he banished unbelief, the scoffers. “He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, ‘Little girl, arise” (vs. 54 NKJV).
God has a heart for hurting parents. After all, God himself is a father. Keep giving your child to God, and in the right time and the right way, God will give your child back to you.
