When Jesus raised Jairus’ daughter from the dead, He gave orders not to tell anyone about it. He told the blind men the same thing. Why? Earlier He told the demon possessed man to tell. What was the difference?

Jesus’ family is listed in today’s reading, his mother, Mary, his brothers James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon, and sisters who are not named. But we know He has at least 2.

Jesus didn’t do miracles in his hometown, except for a few sick people. It was their lack of faith that prevented them from being healed.

Is our lack of faith preventing us from receiving or witnessing miracles? Are we putting limits on Jesus because of our lack of faith?
