The answer is: Daughter

Mark 5:22-23

In the brief encounter between Jesus and Jairus, we see a heart-wrenching tale that illustrates profound themes of faith and desperation. Jairus was a leader in the synagogue, a position of respect and authority. Yet, he put aside societal expectations and his pride to plead for his daughter's healing. This act of humility isn’t just an ordinary request; it's a powerful demonstration that desperation can connect us with deeper faith and hope, regardless of our status or standing.

What's particularly interesting is the setting: as Jairus pleads with Jesus, another incident unfolds involving a woman suffering from a flow of blood for twelve years. There's an important echo here – both the girl and the woman have been in their respective states for twelve years. This connection might suggest reflections on renewal, as twelve is a significant number in biblical literature, often associated with completeness and God's chosen people (think of the twelve tribes of Israel or the twelve disciples).

Also fun to note is the attention Jesus paid to those who were often sidelined—those in need or marginalized in society. When Jesus heals Jairus's daughter, He not only brings her back to life but does so in the presence of those who doubt—excess baggage of negativity He dismissively tells to leave the room. This echoes the idea of standing firm in belief and holding onto hope, even when the situation seems dire. Faith creates miracles, intertwining simplicity with wisdom and courage!
