Letโs be honest, this subject can be โ๐ญ๐๐๐ผ๐ผโ or โ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ก ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฌ๐กโ. People really do not know how to talk about this stuff. I will say this, it is something that is very near to me. It hits home.
This is something that has been around for YEARS! It is not something new. I ๐๐๐๐๐ that one of our local churches touched on this today. Churches need to be more involved! They made it abundantly clear, ๐๐ถ๐ผ ๐จ๐น๐ฌ ๐ต๐ถ๐ป ๐จ๐ณ๐ถ๐ต๐ฌ! So please never feel like you are. Reach out to your people. Reach out to your church. Find those who care and lean on them. Even when you donโt think anyone cares, there are people who love you and want nothing more than to see you happy. ๐๐ง๐ God will ๐๐๐๐๐๐ hear you!
This was said when Jesus showed after his close friend Lazarus had died. When Mary reached the place where Jesus was, she fell at his feet, she was weeping. Obviously a wreck because Lazarus had passed away. She just could not understand!
From Maryโs perspective-Sometimes we just do not understand things. We donโt know why things happen. We get into a lonely, dark, place. Then Jesus gives us an example of how to be a comfort. We do not always need the right words, we do not always need that long medical explanation. It says he was โDeeply Moved in the Spirit and Troubledโ so ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐๐ฉ๐ญโฆ(John 11:35)
Sometimes all you need to do is sit and be a comfort. Cry when someone is crying. Just sit and be their friend.
Then the best partโฆ Jesus asked where Lazarus was and had them take away the stone and then ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ ๐ก๐ข๐บ ๐๐ซ๐ผ๐บ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐! He called in a loud voice, โLazarus, come out!โ
The dead man came out!! Read that againโฆ The ๐๐๐๐ man came out!
If you are feeling broken, lonely, not sure how to comfort someone or you are lonely and feeling broken, this story is one of my favorites!!! First, Seek Jesus, Next sit and weep with him! Then, wait and watch him bring the dead to life!!!
Please know, You are ๐๐๐๐๐ alone!
