My devotion this morning was about the story of Lazarus.
As I return to this passage, I place myself in the tomb with Lazarus, bound, in the dark, waiting for a voice…
My heart drifts to Paul's words in Ephesians, that we have been made alive together with Christ (Ephesians 2:5). God does the resurrecting, but the unbinding is a journey, one that requires grace for others as well as ourselves. The Church exists, in part, for this very reason, to walk alongside one another as we step into the new life Christ has made possible. May I celebrate every new resurrected life and be ready to walk with them as they leave their old life behind.
I think about my journey. Always ongoing, never alone.
Thank you Lord for walking with me and putting the right people in my life.
