JESUS WEPT

-the 1st miracle Jesus did is at a wedding at Cana

-the last miracle Jesus did is at the funeral, raise Lazarus

-Jesus will be there is every moment of life.. He will not leave us helpless

Jesus loves and cares both in good and bad times

Jesus didnt perform the miracle immediately

to Jesus, performing miracle is important.. will lead people to know His identity

-Jesus never want to bring His purpose to pre-maturity

   -Jesus is always concern abt God's timing

-its always in time of waiting that people accuse God's care

Jesus often tell people not to tell others.. not wanting to reveal His real identity yet

a miracle is for use, not for show

-at the back, unseen by the crowd, Jesus performed the miracle, and presented the end product.. turned water into wine

   -Jesus is still working wonders at the back and we will see the miracle

Lazarus sickness will not lead him to death but to Jesus' purpose

-why did Jesus weep even when He knows that Lazarus will eventually be raise from death

   -Jesus is not weeping for Lazarus, but for us

      -Jesus felt the separation, pain, hopelessness of mankind if He didnt die on the cross for us.. no reconciliation in eternity

-Jesus was angry at death and the power of death

   -with His anger, He confronted death.. through the cross, Jesus break death.. death will be broken

-Jesus died for all of us so that we can live, reconciled with the Father and each other in eternity 

-Jesus beat death at the tomb of Lazarus and the resurrection

-Jesus died so that we can live with Him in heaven

while the devil has a plot to destroy us, God already has a plan to resurrect us
