Jairus, the leader of a synagogue, asks Jesus: ‘My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed’. (Mk 5,23) This reading, from the Book of Common Prayer, in the Octave of Easer, is an important reminder. Easter is a special time for prayer. The Resurrection has opened us up to realising our most important needs. What are the most important requests underlying our lives? What relationships should be healed, nourished, or renewed? There are crucial issues, like the healing of the daughter of Jairus, or the healing touch for the woman ‘who had an issue of blood twelve years’. Easter must penetrate the underworld of our unresolved issues. Let us make use of our becoming transparent in the light of Easter.

Easter is the time of the month to resolve our unsolved issues with other people. It represents the time that Jesus resurrected from the dead, to prove his omnipotence to the people. Similarly, we should rise back from our struggles and problems and do our best to prove our worth to others. It's the time to give back to others, in the form of good deed and kindness.

There are many such special moments for prayer, but you can pray always and everywhere when you need it.

It is pity, that this problem becomes more serious. I agree with the author and want to say that the issue about the ressurrection is very controversial.

I am pleased to have found the post like that. I like Bible and I love God. Bible is the source of God's love and His promises.
