the synagogue leader,
by name in the scripture,
risking his reputation
but being her father
faith more than fear
doing what he had to
kneeling before Jesus
calling him to heal her
to come to his daughter
dying in her bed
as a father, taking a chance,
risking his reputation
his position, his standing
but kneeling before Jesus
to heal his daughter’s illness
courageous submission
love for her over position
faith more than fear
coming to Jesus, to the Christ,
his plea did God hear
