Wait patiently for the LORD. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the LORD. Psalm 26:14 No, not because he died, but because he was brought back to life after four days. Lazarus, the brother of Mary and Martha had taken ill and eventually succombed to his illness and died. His sisters had called for Jesus, their friend who many regard as God and who had performed so many awestruck wonders. However, Jesus did not come and Lazarus died. After his death, the sisters blamed Jesus for letting their brother die, but their complaining soon turned to thanksgiving when Jesus miraculously brought him back to life. Do you think God is ever late? If you were Lazarus's sibling, what would you have said to Jesus when he finally arrived ? Has a person you loved ever died even after your prayers? Do you know anyone who has been raised from the dead?
