“Why did Jesus weep at the grave of Lazarus?”
This week has been hard. An unsaved friend of over 30 years is on his way out of this world. He can’t communicate directly anymore, and his younger sister, the “baby” of the family, has been passing messages back and forth to me. I have every confidence the Judge of all the earth will do justice with respect to my friend, but his poor sister has no clue. Her desolation when she talks about losing her brother would break your heart.
Am I grieving for my friend? Absolutely. But I’m grieving even more for his family, who do not have the resources I do.
