“The disciples said to him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking to stone you, and are you going there again?”

After saying these things, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to awaken him.” The disciples said to him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.” Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep. Then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus has died, and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.” So Thomas, called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.””

All,

This stands out because Thomas says, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”  Does Thomas think that Jesus is going to die when he heals Lazarus since the Jews tried to stone Jesus last time?  What a small sentence to describe Thomas’s love for Jesus. Are we willing to walk into a dangerous situation with Jesus?  Jesus doesn’t seem to be concerned about the Jews at all. Can we be scared of man when there is actually a greater miracle to behold?  Please pray that we and our friends trust God’s nudges and see opportunities we didn’t know existed. Please pray for Doug’s group as they go on their overnight.
