- John 11:1-44
Here we see why Jesus didn’t come when Mary and Martha wanted Him to come. Here we see disappointment transformed to delight. Jesus didn’t do for them what they wanted. He did so much more. They needed hope, and Jesus gave them hope. They needed comfort and Jesus gave them comfort. They wanted healing, but Jesus gave them something better, when He called Lazarus forth from the grave, He put to end our greatest fear, the fear of death.
