Truth is the Straight-and-Narrow path to Salvation. Our Lord occupies all Time, Life and Space under the Sun where folks gather to praise God for illuminating the Road-to-Recovery. His Living Words are shared where souls Pray-Out-loud, I confess there are times when sharing our Faith is uncomfortable. Jesus made space each day to pronounce the Good-News to people offending His Father; their response would make Him narrow the road but extend the offering.

Our Lord’s offerings became legendary; His Peace-of-Mind begot the Dominion-of-Trust used to Forgive those who need more Time. We don’t need to prove ourselves to others however some need to see in order to believe. The Holy-Spirit is constantly proving God exists by entrusting believers who Push-for-Peace while on earth; their lives unfold in Times-of-Truth.

Now a man was ill, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfumed oil and dried his feet with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was ill. So the sisters sent word to him, saying, “Master, the one you love is ill.” When Jesus heard this he said, “This illness is not to end in death, but is for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when he heard that he was ill, he remained for two days in the place where he was. Then after this he said to his disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.” The disciples said to him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you, and you want to go back there?” Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in a day? If one walks during the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

But if one walks at night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” He said this, and then told them, “Our friend Lazarus is asleep, but I am going to awaken him.” So the disciples said to him, “Master, if he is asleep, he will be saved.” But Jesus was talking about his death, while they thought that he meant ordinary sleep. So then Jesus said to them clearly, “Lazarus has died.

And I am glad for you that I was not there, that you may believe. Let us go to him.” So Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go to die with him.” When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away.

And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. (But) even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him, “I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day.”

Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world.” (John 11:1-27 NABRE)

We are remnants of the fist disciples whose life was dedicated to the Lord for their Belief was Glorified through Christ. God expects upright souls to live the path of righteousness; in Body we move in and out of harm’s way, in Mind we share creative Wisdom, and in our Soul confides His-Living-Word that cannot be erased or taken away by mortals. Even if our journey requires Super-Powers, we will walk the Path-of-Salvation united by Yahweh our Superstar!
