When bad things happen, we often find ourselves asking 'why?' This exploration of John 11 takes us deep into one of the most profound questions we face: why does suffering exist, and where is God in our pain? Through the story of Lazarus, we discover that proximity to Jesus doesn't free us from pain—even those closest to Him experienced loss and grief. What transforms this narrative from tragedy to hope is the revelation that God's apparent delays are never defeats. Jesus waited two days before going to Lazarus, and by the time He arrived, His friend had been dead for four days. Yet this wasn't negligence—it was perfect timing. We learn that God exists outside of time, seeing all of history as one moment, never early and never late. The shortest verse in the Bible, 'Jesus wept,' reveals something stunning: His power to heal never cancels out His compassion to feel. He weeps with us even when He knows the ending. The greatest miracle isn't the show of power when Lazarus walks out of the tomb—it's the person of Jesus Himself, who declares 'I am the resurrection and the life.' When we're sitting in grief like Mary, working through pain like Martha, or feeling dead like Lazarus, Jesus meets us exactly where we are, calling us by name into resurrection life.
