JESUS TRANSFORMSBài mẫu

New life, Jesus rises. What we once thought was lost has life again. The widow's life was transformed when Jesus saw her and took pity on her. He told her not to cry. Jesus tells us not to cry; many times, we are mourning a loss, but Jesus tells us what we must do. We have to look to Jesus. The beautiful thing is that Jesus looks at us; we just have to tilt our gaze. We have to stop looking at what was lost but at what will be gained. With the death of Lazarus, they called Jesus again, not in His own time, but in God's perfect time. Many times, we get upset when our prayers are not answered quickly. This is what we see in Mary when she responds, "If you had been here, my brother would not have died." When we are spiritually dead, Jesus weeps. Just as He wept for Lazarus, but Jesus is always on time, with just Jesus saying one word, there is life again. Jesus transforms our death into life and puts color on our faces.
