Come Out!
When we hear Jesus calling for Lazarus to, “come out!” we need to also hear him saying those same words to us; calling us out from the tomb, from the darkness of our selfishness, our grudges, desire for revenge, prejudices, and sin. May we be courageous enough to name the stones that need to be rolled away from our lives in this season of Lent.
