Jesus Wept

January 5, 2025 • John 11:1–45

We start the month in John 11:1-45 with a peek into Jesus’ personal life. After the death of one of His friends, Jesus wept — even though He knew what would happen next. Jesus trusted that God would be with Him in His sadness and wept anyway, showing us He is there with us in our sadness too. Bottom Line: When you’re sad, remember you’re not alone. There will be times in our lives when we will experience grief and hardships because that’s just the nature of life. However, when troubles come, we can remember that because Jesus experienced the things we experience, He knows how we feel and is with us as we work through our emotions.
