Lk 7: 11-17 Raising of the dead man

"'Young man I tell you, get up.'"

Dear Jesus,

I see you raising the dead man up and giving him back to his mother. I am there as a witness and I am in awe. I look on and think, "Wow. This is truly the power of God."

May I always trust in your power. May my faith be unshakable. Help me to remember that all things are possible with you. May I also spread this message through my words and actions. May I always believe in the power of your love and the all-powerful force of your love as it conquers death. I know that with you, dear Jesus, all things are possible, even resurrection from the dead. There is nothing more powerful than your ability to transform lives, individually and collectively. Again, help me to cultivate that in myself and work for that in my relationships with others without fear.

I am truly blessed. Amen.
