Jesus Felt Sad - Lazarus
 
 
 
 
Jesus' eyes were filled with tears.
 
 
 
JOHN 11:35
 
 
Jesus could make storms stop. He could make blind people see and crippled people walk. Why would Jesus ever have to feel sad? He could change anything that made him sad.
One time Jesus was sad. His good friend Lazarus had died. Mary and Martha were sad. They loved their brother. They would miss him. Jesus felt sad for them, too. Do you know what Jesus did? He cried. Now we know that Jesus understands how we feel
when someone we love hurts very bad or dies.

When have you felt sad ?
How does it help to know that Jesus felt sad, too?

Dear God,
Jesus must have been very sad. Thank you that he understands how I feel when I am sad. Thank you for caring me when I hurt.
Amen.
Love, Tia Célia
