You Can Raise Lazarus!

A barefoot doctor of China in 1960s: Even though she was a Communist, I believe Jesus worked through her to help many people.

When your friend is in distress, don't dig deeply into her problems.

It'll just make a small problem so big that she might feel a need to isolate herself from the entire human community.

When you judge someone's problem, you are acting as a priest who pronounces her unclean of spiritual leprosy.

When your friend is in distress, find together what resources she has so that she can find a better way.

By doing this, you can't only heal the small leprosy of her mind but also open spiritually blind eyes and even raise a dead spirit.

When you empower someone through reminding her of her own resources, Jesus is working through us.

And we are saved when Jesus works through a lot of people around us and remind us that we are already saved.

And remember, He wouldn't only work through Christians. Even an atheist or a Communist can be His instrument. So whoever empowers you, accept him as Jesus' hands.
