“Jesus
had sorrow at Lazarus grave...”
Sam/

Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
Hebrews
4:15 KJV
For
we have not an High Priest which cannot be touched with the
feeling of our infirmities*; but was in all points
tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
*Infirmities- Greek: Astheneia (As-then-i-ah): Feebleness (of
body or mind); Maladies, frailties: disease, infirmity, sickness,
weakness.
Did our Lord, know sorrow, yes, He wept on different occasions, here
on earth.
John 11:32-36 KJV (Lazarus)
32
Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down
at His feet, saying unto Him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my
brother had not died.
33
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which
came with her, He groaned in The Spirit, and was troubled,
34
And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto Him, Lord, come and
see.
35
Jesus wept.
36
Then said the Jews, Behold how He loved him!
Dear Christians, who mourn, the parting of a loved one. Jesus knows
your sorrow!
He is “ touched with the feelings of our infirmities.”

And when He was come near, He beheld the city, and wept over it,

things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine
eyes.
Does our Lord, weep over our city? And if He does, what is the
dictate of our compassion, for the lost?

to every creature.

And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly: and His sweat was as
it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

For
I have given you and example, that ye should do as I have done to
you.
In Godly service, will there be tears, yes...and yet in faithfulness
we are to pray...
Luke
22:42 KJV
“...nevertheless not My will, but thine, be done.”
I
Peter 4:19 KJV
Wherefore, let them that suffer according to the will of God commit
the keeping of their souls to Him in well doing, as unto A Faithful
Creator.

30:5 KJV
"...Weeping
may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."
Psalm
31:23 KJV
O
love The Lord, all ye His saints: for The Lord preserveth the
faithful..."
When
I Survey the Wondrous Cross
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which The Prince Of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ my God!
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His Blood.
See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
