Digest
Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.
What does this show me about God?
- Jesus says she is only asleep, and they laugh at him — and then she gets up. What is death to Jesus?
What does it show me about people — and about me?
- He tells them to give her something to eat. Why does that little detail matter?
What will I obey this week?
- Jesus says, "don't be afraid, just believe." Where do you need to do that this week?
Who will I tell?
- Who is grieving somebody? What could you say or do for them?
Grow
Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
Pray
Jesus, everybody was already crying and you took her hand and told her to get up like it was morning. Thank you that death does not scare you.
