Lazarus

Lazarus was dead for only a few days Nothing could wake him it says not even the tears and the weeping even the loud groaning and moaning with his final breath he blew out his candle He was sealed in a tomb like a prisoner in chains sentenced to solitary confinement All seemed lost like a sinking ship Yet a man of miracles the Son of Man travelled from heaven to earth to save and heal pain and suffering Without a touch with just three words The Son of Man released Lazarus Angels rejoiced Mountains raised their voices Nature rose from the dead of sleep What was easy for Him was a miracle to us And in the excitement what is never said Never seen was His grin even a chuckle Lazarus was untied we were untied Everything changed forever

Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:24?-?26 NIV Amen, great inspiring poem of truth, love it, for we are all dead until the spirit of Christ resurrect s within: )
