When her brother Lazarus died, Martha felt as though Jesus had abandoned them. She believed Lazarus was gone forever. However, the words Jesus said from the cross about feeling forsaken by God may have connected with how Martha felt on a deeper level. The reflections from Martha help us consider how we can hope for a different ending in our story, even when we feel forsaken. This video is based on Matthew 27:46 and is part of the Last Words of Christ Easter series, and can also stand alone as a sermon illustration on trusting and waiting on God.
Scripture: Matthew 27:46

Over 2,000 years ago, God’s people were waiting. They believed He was there, but it was just silence. Before their lifetime, God would send messages through burning bushes or pillars of fire, even prophets. We, too, may know how it feels to wait for a reply but to be left in the dark. But then, there was assurance that God, Emmanuel, would come to us and never leave us.
