GOSPEL REFLECTION
We know what it is like to hope for a miracle. So we understand the worry of Mary and Martha in today’s Gospel when they send for Jesus with the message that Lazarus is ill. We feel the pain in their accusation after Jesus arrives: ‘If you had been here, my brother would not have died’. Today’s Gospel recounts a big miracle, and it tells us that everything is possible to God. It calls us to a deeper faith, both in what God can do for us, and in his promise of eternal life
