Luke 7:11–15
Soon afterwards Jesus went to a town called Nain, and
his disciples and a large crowd went with him. As he approached the gate of the
town, a man who had died was being carried out. He was his mother’s only son,
and she was a widow; and with her was a large crowd from the town. When the
Lord saw her, he had compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.” Then he
came forward and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, “Young
man, I say to you, rise!” The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus
gave him to his mother.
Reflection
• Have
I ever experienced God’s love is stronger than death?
• How
do I learn to let go and say
an unqualified “Yes” to God?
