Resurrection
Martha and Mary were not alone
in their grief. They lost a dear brother, young and strong. Their friends
thought how unfair it was to lose a brother and friend so young. One special
friend called Jesus, with whom they had a good relationship, was not with them
at that moment. Actually it was rather difficult to make out who he really was
and why he was amongst them. One explanation we find in John 11.14b-15 – ‘…..“Lazarus
is dead, 15 and for your sake I am glad I was not
there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”’
A very puzzled Thomas said ‘”Let
us also go, that we may die with him.”’ (11.16b)
What do you believe: is
resurrection a reality or not?
