Mark 5:24 (KJV) And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.
There were as many hindrances to Jairus’ daughter being healed as one could imagine
A sea
A multitude
Another person in need
A messenger with bad news
A death
A mocking family
Notice that none these in any way stressed our Lord or presented any obstacle to His purpose.
The trouble we too often have is that we can’t see passed the obstacles to watch the Lord’s calm assurance. He has it handled. Ask Him, follow Him and trust Him.
