Not all of us are called to heroic discipleship like Ignatius, but each of us is called to holiness and to some work God that God has entrusted to no one else.

The Lord, who alone has power over life and death, responds, not by immediately performing a miracle but by deepening Martha’s faith, and then by lamenting the death of his friend – for death was never meant to be a part of his heavenly Father’s plan.

Let none of us (myself included) ever take the Lord for granted. He is not merely a prophet, nor merely a man wiser than the rest of men, but the Incarnate Son of God, the Word made flesh, the Crucified Lord, whose truth we cannot fully fathom and whose love exceeds imagination. To know him, even somewhat, brings joy and consolation.
