Summary
The Raising of Lazarus.
Master, the one you love is ill (Jn 11:3b).
Yes, Lord.
I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God,
the one who is coming into the world.
Reflection
He cried out in a loud voice,
“Lazarus, come out!”
Jesus loves you.
You are the one he loves who is ill.
In truth, we are all Lazarus.
Personal Reflection
Lord, may we all have a Martha and Mary who worry for us and intercede for us.
May we live our lives knowing we are loved unto life.
May we see ourselves in the Raising of Lazarus.
And when we hear your voice calling us,
may we come out and live.
