reflection John 11:35
"Jesus wept."
* known as the shortest verse in the Bible
* recent message at Pursuit included a new perspective for me
* You may know that this is part of the "Lazarus being raised from the dead" story. After Lazarus has died, his family was grieving deeply.
* And Jesus wept.
* Jesus was compassionate, knowing how deeply sad the family was. He felt their sadness and wept with them.
* The new perspective for me was that Jesus also knew that in a few minutes, Lazarus would be raised from the dead. Even though he knew this would be a great miracle and a joyful moment for the family, Jesus was compassionate to their sadness at the moment. And wept with them.
* I don't know. It was a new perspective for me. Maybe as we are helping others deal with grief, sometimes we need to weep with them, even if it is likely that better news is ahead.
* #BeCompassionate
moleskine:
* Tonka and I had a great time suffering through this workout. I know our shoulders were barking and screaming.
* T-claps to Tonka for being #Iam3rd. I was pretty sure it would either be the 2 of us or just me.
* Even though we were able to avoid most of the rain, we were both soaked in effort : )
* The 3rd Round was tough and required all sorts of suffering faces and groans.
* I was 'watching' the Denver BRR team overnight on Strava, and it looks like they killed it. Great job guys!! Way to represent!!
Always an honor to lead
