Can you believe this?? Last summer we put a new roof on our cabin and with that came a loft. To keep with the rustic look we put white birch (native to New England) logs for our rails. Once a tree is cut it is considered dead...or at least we thought. This summer when we came home we noticed two new branches growing on one rail.
WOW!!
I began to look at the spiritual. Have you ever been in a situation where death had occurred? Maybe in a marriage, family or personal relationship, your finances, or maybe even death of a loved one. There seemed to be no hope of any life at all..you actually accept that death as something final. Well, I am here to tell you that is not true.
Jesus brings life!
Jesus brings life!
This part gets me quite excited. The story of Mary, Martha and the death of Lazarus in the Gospel of John is where Jesus shows there is life after death. Lazarus was a dear friend to Jesus. He had been dead four days and the two sisters were grieving the loss of their brother. They did not understand why Jesus did not come to them right away and save their brother. Jesus had a better plan just as He always does. He knows how to fix what we think is unfixable.
"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" John 11:25-26
