Toe Marta hoor dat Jesus kom, het sy Hom tegemoet gegaan; maar Maria het in die huis bly sit. Marta sê toe vir Jesus: “Here, as U hier was, sou my broer nie gesterwe het nie. Maar selfs nou weet ek dat God U alles sal gee wat U van Hom vra.” Jesus sê toe vir haar: “Jou broer sal uit die dood opstaan.” Maar Marta sê vir Hom: “Ek weet hy sal met die opstanding op die laaste dag uit die dood opstaan.” Toe sê Jesus vir haar: “Ek is die opstanding en die lewe. Wie in My glo, sal lewe, al sterwe hy ook; en elkeen wat lewe en in My glo, sal in alle ewigheid nooit sterwe nie. Glo jy dit?” “Ja, Here,” sê sy vir Hom, “ek glo vas dat U die Christus is, die Seun van God, die Een wat na die wêreld toe moes kom.”

5 Days
A life poured out. We see an example of this in Mary who anointed Jesus (John 12:1-8). In these next 5 days, let us do as Mary did and smash the alabaster jar, so we may be overcome by the fragrance of Jesus.
Death affects us all but how do we cope when we lose a loved one? This plan provides hope and comfort in the midst of grief.
Often we feel as if we’re not doing enough. Then we feel guilty because we’re supposed to be having quiet times with God too—but when we try to slow down, our hearts and minds are still busy. The story of Mary and Martha offers us guidance as well as grace in this tension. It’s a story of two sisters. It’s a story for each of us.
When Kim's three-year-old son passed away, she found plenty of resources on grieving. She says what she really needed, though, “was someone who would give me advice for living, not just grieving.” In this five-day devotional, Kim will share a raw vulnerability, a deep well of wisdom, and the knowledge of someone who’s been there as she walks grieving parents through the life-after-death process and surviving the sorrow of loss.
