Caution: this blog contains traumatic events
“My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live,” says the religious ruler to the Rabbi. The Rabbi follows the distraught father to his home. Lying cold and still on her bed is his little lamb, his one and only daughter. The Rabbi looks at the father and says, “Don’t be afraid; just believe.”
Tenderly, the Rabbi takes her hand and says: “Talitha koum!” (which means, “Little lamb, I say to you, get up!”) The little lamb hears his voice and comes running back home. (Based on Mark 5:21-43)
Another little girl lays ill in bed. Death stands by her side ready to strike. Why is the hand of death held back? Who prevents him from swinging his deadly sickle?
The same hand that healed the little lamb so long ago reaches out again. It is He, the Good Shepherd, that spares yet another from death’s cold grasp. The little one has been poisoned, and the chemicals flood her bloodstream. Her mind is swimming in the fog of an overdose; little does she remember of the event. In the mist of memories, she remembers lying in the bed of someone who loves her.
Prayer
Father God,
Going back to these dark days is hard. Being poisoned by one’s enemy is one thing; being poisoned by your mother is… like a horror film. My mother was so messed up-in her confused mind she was trying to protect me by “sending me to heaven.”

Oh my dear Jesus, my life is filled with so many traumatic events. Some of these events live in my subconscious and impact my present-day relationships. You are going to have to do some supernatural healing in my life.
Help me let go of fear and be able to trust.
There are women reading this blog who have endured severe traumatic events. They are hiding their wounds from others, but the bleeding continues to sap their soul of joy. Good Shepherd, hold these little lambs close to your heart and bring healing from their sorrow and pain. Help them to let go of the need to control everything and rest in Your strength.
“Talitha is a term of endearment. It is etymologically related to a word that can also mean ‘lamb.’ Jesus’ use of this term, coupled with His taking the little girl by the hand, provides an image of compassion and gentleness. The Good Shepherd is lovingly gathering the lambs in His arms (see Isaiah 40:11): ‘My little lamb,’ He says to her as He restores her life, ‘it’s time to get up.'” https://www.gotquestions.org/talitha-cumi.html
Words to Tina from her husband: “Sweetheart, there is nothing to fear. Go in peace. Your faith hath made thee well.”
