Friends of the Rosary,

Jesus visited the home of Martha, Mary, and Lazarus in Bethany, a small village two miles from Jerusalem. We read of three visits in Luke 10:38-42, John 11:1-53, and John 12:1-9.

The Gospel of John tells us that Jesus had a special relationship with this family. “Jesus loved Martha and Mary and Lazarus.” (Jn 11:5)

So when Jesus corrected Martha, it was with familiarity and gentleness. “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things. There is need of only one thing” (Lk 10:41-42).

In Martha, we see ourselves as being worried and distracted by all we have to do in the world and forgetting to spend time with Jesus.

In another passage, Jesus wept with Martha and Mary outside the tomb of their brother Lazarus. And he performs the great miracle of raising Lazarus from the dead.

“Did I not tell you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?” (Jn 11:40)

Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!
Saints Martha, Mary, and Lazarus, Pray for Us!

Come, Holy Spirit, come!

To Jesus through Mary!
