Daily CLC Prayer verse

“Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled. And he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.” Jesus wept. So the Jews said, “See how he loved him!” But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?””
‭‭John‬ ‭11:32-37‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because John says, “Jesus wept.”  Didn’t Jesus know He was about to raise Lazarus from the dead?  Why did He weep?  Even though He knows a outcome, He is still moved when those He loves are hurting and sad. How much more does He want us to put our trust in Him at those times?  Please pray that we and our friends put our trust in Jesus and submit our will to His. Please pray for Phil’s group as it’s forming.
