Could a should a would a
The Gospel of John Eleven 37 thru 44
37 But some of them said, “Could not the one who opened the eyes of the blind man have done something so that this man would not have died?” 38 So Jesus, perturbed again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay across it. 39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the dead man’s sister, said to him, “Lord, by now there will be a stench; he has been dead for four days.” 40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?” 41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus raised his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you for hearing me. 42 I know that you always hear me; but because of the crowd here I have said this, that they may believe that you sent me.” 43 And when he had said this, he cried out in a loud voice,* “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out, tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face was wrapped in a cloth. So Jesus said to them, “Untie him and let him go.”
What do you do when you don’t believe? Do you run from the truth in every aspect of your life not wanting to realize what it means to forgive? I can’t understand how somebody won’t forgive especially your own children when things of your past life more than 25 years ago make a person not forgive at all. Jesus taught us to forgive and this relationship is hard to except by others when it disperses their ability to love on their own agenda. I think you know what that means. It means someone’s thinks that what they are doing has no bearing on truth. The truth is I lived a life of shame. I am not saying that I never did. The fact is I struggled with addiction and sold my soul to accomplish what I thought would kill me in the end. Instead, the Lord had other plans and I began a journey to forgive myself as much as the one who traumatized me.
This forgiveness raises the dead amen. This forgiveness will untie you just as he had the people untie Lazarus to set him free after being dead in a tomb for more than four days. These things are eye witnessed and bring about a surrender that many a person are afraid of. It’s difficult to let go and today I feel something that I can’t let go of and that’s the love I have for my children and my daughter’s grandchildren. I can’t let go of love and because of my PTSD the actions that occurred during their younger life I have been told they no longer want me to be a part of their life. I will begin openly writing about this on a daily basis seeking in the word of God my comfort as I openly challenge a decision in Public Court that takes me away from the grand children I have gotten to know and love. These burial cloths will be undone for I know with patience and love God will give his faithful vindication and overcome the death of a granddad. Amen.
Join us in our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Prayers for our son Gabriel and Allen Thomas Wiggins. Prayers for Dr. Cruz-Peluca. Silence for the prayers of others. CORO-19 prayers globally. Holy Spirit and St Joseph CC & Holy Mother Church. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

**Could a should a would a**
Again perturbed Jesus
Jews blind to Truth
Could a should a would a
Prevent Lazarus death truth
Tomb they arrive
Stone roll away quick
Cave left to die
Lord- days four of stench
God’s glory believe?
Martha was asked
What she would perceive
Eyes His raised to the task
Me heard Father you outrank
Me always heard
Here crowd reason said aloud thanked
Me sent by you believe in Word
Voice loud out cried
Out come Lazarus Jesus relied
Man dead came out complied
Bands burial feet hands tied
Wrapped face too
Saying Jesus aloud
Go untie freed true
Raising Lazarus bath would do
