JESUS LOVED MARTHA AND HER SISTER AND LAZARUS / JOHN 11:5

(KJV) John 11:5

Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

Here is a family that had a true and strong devotion to Jesus (John 11:2). They enjoyed a close personal relationship with Him (Luke 10:38-42), and He considered them to be very special friends (Luke 11:3-5). Still, they experienced sorrow, sickness and death. Today the same types of trouble touch the lives of faithful Christians as well. Yet Jesus is aware of the pain and will always be there to guide us through the difficult circumstances of life. Churches will have people who are outwardly passionate about their devotion to the Lord (like Mary), faithful in good works and service (like Martha) and those who are suffering and dying (like Lazarus). Families like this, and others in the church, may often wonder why God does not take a certain action; they may even feel that He has forgotten them (Psalms 13:1; Matthew 27:46; Revelation 6:10). But if Jesus seems to delay His healing or relief, it is not for lack of love, mercy or compassion. He is waiting for just the right time to bring the greatest honor to God (John 11:4) and the greatest eternal good for those involved (John 11:15, 23-26, 40-44).
