Even Now

Christ Chapel Audio Podcasts

The story of Lazarus is a common one, but the faith and declaration of Martha is often overlooked to our own shame and loss. At the point of hopelessness, with Lazarus decomposition exponentially taking place in the jerusalem heat; her prayers unanswered, her hopes dashed, her expectation unrealized.....from the bottom of her sould came two words, 'even now.' Even now Lord, when it is to late. Even now, when the funeral music is playing and the mourners are heard crying around the tomb. Even now, where the stench of death is in the air and it covers anyone who comes within distance of it's power. Even now, I believe God can. I believe it is a matter of your will, not mine; and though my faith be small, it has one direction..... You, Son of God
