2 Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

1. What does this show me about God?

   • Jesus says, "I am the resurrection and the life," and then proves it. Who is Jesus?

2. What does it show me about people — and about me?

   • Jesus weeps even though he knows what he is about to do. What does that say about crying?

3. What will I obey this week?

   • Who have you lost, or what have you lost? What will you tell Jesus about it this week?

4. Who will I tell?

   • Who needs to hear that Jesus cried too? When will you tell them?

3 Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
