You Are Not Forgotten

John 9:1-7

1. As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth.

2. His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

3. “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 

4. As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. 

5. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

6. After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. 

7. “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam” (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.

 

John 11:1-7

 1. Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 

2. (This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.) 

3. So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one you love is sick.”

4. When he heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God’s glory so that God’s Son may be glorified through it.”

 5. Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

 6. So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, 

7. and then he said to his disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
