Luke 8:40-56 Jesus returns to Capernaum and is met by a great crowd, including two people that the gospel focuses on. One man name Jairus, whose only daughter, twelve years old is at the point of death. He begs Jesus to come heal her, and while on their way a woman came to Jesus from behind and touched the edge of his cloak and is healed of twelve years of bleeding. we learn much about the human condition. Jesus is our only hope.
