Mar 5:36 | MHM | STEP | v. 36 : Jesus gives Jairus hope and tells him, Be not afraid, only believe (Mark 5:36 ). Jesus wants Jairus to keep trusting him, even though his daughter has died. We should remember, too, that when someone dies, we should not grieve like people who have no hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13 ). God still comforts those who mourn, as he told Rachel, Refrain your voice from weeping... for there is hope in your end, that your children shall come again (Jeremiah 31:16–17 ). Faith in Jesus is the answer to fear and deep sorrow.
