Coming back to our study in the Gospel of John, we pick up our study in chapter 11 and the resurrection of Lazarus. The chapter opens with Jesus’ delay despite knowing that Lazarus is ill. This narrative gives us insight into comforting truths about God’s timing in that God is never truly delayed, but that He is working everything for His glory and our ultimate good. The encouragement we get from this passage is that no matter the suffering we may experience while waiting on God’s timing, we can trust that His timing will bring about His glory and our good.
