The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Series on The Ascension Lenten Companion by Fr. Mark Toups (Part 6)
Our expectations and what God is doing can be totally different, so how should we respond to that?
In the raising of Lazarus, the response of the Pharisees was to have Jesus killed. This was the tragic response of the heart when they were not open and unable to receive the mysterious and unconditional love of God.
We can sometimes share the same humanity as the Pharisees too. We sometimes prefer to have Jesus out of our lives completely because of the changes, experiences, and difficult things that are happening in our lives that weren't what we expected them to be.
We want it to be a certain way but then it's not that way.
But despite all that, we are invited to stay in relationship with Jesus through any difficulty, change, or experience. In this episode we're gonna do a recap on the raising of Lazarus and dive into its mysterious reality and our response to that.
