Mary and Martha believed in Jesus’ power but struggled with His timing. When Lazarus died, their disappointment was real, yet even in the delay, Jesus was working. This passage reminds us that silence doesn’t mean absence, and delay doesn’t mean denial. God’s timing is always tied to His purpose.
Join us this week as we learn how to move from disappointment to deeper devotion, trusting that even in the waiting, God is writing a greater story.

How can you rebuild trust when His timing doesn’t match your expectations?
-
Where do you see signs that God is still working-- even quietly in your life?
