Today's Card: A Woman's Wisdom on Your Behalf

From the story of the Jairus' Daughter

I love this woman’s story . . . well, this young girl’s.

Jairus’ Daughter is one of 52 women/stories from which I draw when creating New Year Sacred Readings. It’s possible that she is the one who will show up on your behalf. And if so, oh the potential and beauty and wisdom and hope that is yours in the year ahead!

I’m biased, of course, but I say the same no matter which of the women and stories chooses you! There is SO MUCH grace and advocacy and truth and encouragement and support to be found within. Which is, of course, why I’d love for you to have one.

Her story:

She’s only twelve years old when she falls deathly ill. Her father searches out Jesus, finds him in a crowd of people, and begs him to come to his home—desperate for anything or anyone who might save his daughter. When Jesus arrives, the family and neighbors are in mourning, believing the girl to be dead. Jesus sends them all away and says to her, “Little girl, get up.” Which she does!

That’s the end of her story, at least as it’s told. But there must be so much more to the life she lived, the mark she made, the stories she told! And so . . . that’s what I imagine!
