Today’s story from the Gospel of John is a bit of a preview. It’s a story about a home in Bethany that was filled with the same things many of us feel: the worry of sickness, the frustration of a long wait, and the fear of what comes next. But right in the middle of that crisis, we find the heartbeat of our faith.
As we prepare our hearts for the Cross and the Empty Tomb, let’s look together at what it means when Jesus asks us to wait—and the beautiful promise that He is always walking the hallway with us, even when the room feels dim.
