God's Best Outdoes Sin's Worst
Tuesday, John 1 1: 35-45.
Can a thing be worse than the worst? You’re pretty apt to think so when it touches you. The “only daughter” had just died — humanly a hopeless case. The “only son” was being carried to his burial — one step further in hopelessness. This “only brother” has been buried four days — the very last degree of hopelessness. But Jesus’ restoring power is unfailing. And his love is greater yet. He can, and he will, if he may get our consent.
