Perturbed Jesus accepting not His grief
When Jesus saw her weeping and the Jews who had come with her weeping, he became perturbed and deeply troubled, and said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Sir, come and see.” And Jesus wept. So the Jews said, “See how he loved him.” 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?” So Jesus, perturbed again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay across it. John 11:33-38
The LORD foils the plan of nations, frustrates the designs of peoples. Psalm 33:10
Whereas we shall devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word. Acts 6:4
John 11:33-38, Psalm 33 & Acts 6:4
One of the most amazing things I’ve experience when I began studying the Word of God is when I came across this passage that simply states, “Jesus wept.” At first I thought it was an emotion of Jesus brought about by witnessing the love of the Jews firsthand for his friend Lazarus. To hear Jesus cry over his friend’s demise that affected his sisters and everyone around them so much so that it affected him in a perturbed cry of “why can’t you just believe.”
Yes, Jesus loved his friends deeply yet felt emotions for the lack of surrendered trust, tenacity and testimony of their natural reactions they brought while Jesus showed agitation of their inability to realize Divine healing. I believe Jesus was letting us know that to trust in him will illuminate the tears of fear and allow each and every one to experience Salvation as the understood reason why he came to the world. I often think that shame is the reason were lacking confidence in Christ until he comes along and shows you proof like raising Lazarus but cannot call on this complete belief until you can hear your name echoing in the halls of human nature being called by God to live in His Word being ever devout in prayer sharing Jesus by belief. Amen.
Join us in our daily prayer of forgiveness. I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and Rose for me. Prayers for all who have asked us to pray for them or we said we’d pray for. Prayers for JSRW. IN Jesus Name. Amen.

Perturbed Jesus accepting not His grief
Jews weeping seen by Jesus perturbed
Troubled deeply agitated soulistic pain
Him laid where Jesus asked undeterred
Wept Jesus humility domain complain
Lazarus loved shown by the Christ
Eyes opened of others said some in disbelief
Died not Lazarus if Jesus came enticed
Stone lay in the way of a cave tomb Relief
Again perturbed Jesus accepting not His grief
