Though she was dead, Jesus came into the room and "taking her by the hand he said to her, "Talitha cumi," which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise." But first he expelled those who laughed at Him. The Gospel—the life of the obedience of faith rewarded with the gift of wisdom for those who overcome. "For to him or her who overcomes, I will give him to eat of the fruit of the Tree of Life."
This blog, which is so aptly named Talitha Cum (i) (koum), is the story of the struggle of faith and like the Psalmist, overcomes. The glory does not go to the writer but to the Spirit who calls us forth from the dead. I pray for your sake that you are not offended, for the Gospel is dressed in bloody rags and not for the squeamish but for the brave and for the one who is worthy.
