WORD OF HOPE (Episode 1)
Lazarus, who happened to be a bosom friend of Jesus, was terribly sick and was at the point of death. His sisters became afraid and sent a message to Jesus to inform him that his bosom friend, whom he loved so much, was sick. They informed Jesus so that he could come and heal his friend.
But Jesus didn't show up. He refused to show up the first, second and third day after receiving the message. When He finally showed up, Lazarus was already dead. On seeing Jesus, Lazarus' sisters (Mary & Martha) told Jesus he was too late, that if he had come earlier, their brother (Lazarus) wouldn't have died.
But Jesus replied them, "If you will believe, you will see the glory of God!" This reply indicates that Jesus can never be late because He controls time. Jesus asked the men to roll away the stone of Lazarus' tomb, and he raised Lazarus from the dead! The full account of the story can be found in the book of John chapter 11.
Does your case appear hopeless? Is it as hopeless as Lazarus's? I guess not! If a hopeless case like that of Lazarus could be resolved, how much more yours?
Your case is too simple for Jesus to handle and settle! All you need to do is call upon Him, and He will show up to help you out. He is in the business of helping people. You might think time is going, but Jesus is never late; he can choose to show up at any time he wishes.
You might think your case is too late, but nothing is too late with Jesus. Don't kill yourself over a matter that is too small for Jesus to handle. Trust in him, and you will be glad you did. Shalom!
