Reflection on the gospel of March 21, 2021
By: Ron Czarney – Whole Community Catechesis
“I AM the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me
will never die. Do you believe this?”
WOW! I’m speechless! The words above are taken from this Sunday’s gospel, and they’re spoken by Jesus. It’s another one of His many “I
AM” statements He shares with us in the gospels. Actually, the first time God shares His real name with us happens in the Old Testament
when Moses approaches the burning bush. Moses asks the voice speaking from the bush how he should refer to Him when Moses goes to
Pharaoh and tells the pharaoh he must free the Israelites from bondage. God responds with a booming “I AM WHO AM!” That’s quite the
calling card, wouldn’t you agree? Well, Jesus continues this “I AM” revelation during His ministry on earth: “I AM the bread of life; I AM
the vine, you are the branches; I AM the Good Shepherd; I AM the way, and the truth, and the life.” And then today’s hopeful revelation to
us: “I AM the resurrection and the life . . .” What do you think He might be telling us in this statement? Well, let’s read the gospel and see if
we can figure out His message to us:
Gospel Jn 11:1-45
Now a man was ill, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfumed oil and dried His feet with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus
who was ill. So the sisters sent word to Him saying, “Master, the one you love is ill.” When Jesus heard this He said, “This ill-
ness is not to end in death, but is for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.” Now Jesus loved Mar-
tha and her sister and Lazarus. So when He heard that he was ill, He remained for two days in the place where He was. Then
after this He said to His disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.” The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to
stone You, and You want to go back there?” Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in a day? If one walks during the
day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. But if one walks at night, he stumbles, because the light is not
in him.” He said this, and then told them, “Our friend Lazarus is asleep, but I am going to awaken him.” So the disciples said
to Him, “Master, if he is asleep, he will be saved.” But Jesus was talking about His death, while they thought that He meant
ordinary sleep. So then Jesus said to them clearly, “Lazarus has died. And I am glad for you that I was not there, that you
may believe. Let us go to him.”
So Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go to die with him.”
When Jesus arrived, He found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem,
only about two miles away. And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother. When
Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet Him; but Mary sat at home. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had
been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You. ” Jesus
said to her, “Your brother will rise.”
Martha said to him, “I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the
life; whoever believes in Me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you belie ve
this?”
She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, the One who is coming into the
world.” When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here and is asking for
you.” As soon as she heard this, she rose quickly and went to Him. For Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still
where Martha had met Him. So when the Jews who were with her in the house comforting her saw Mary get up quickly and go
out, they followed her, presuming that she was going to the tomb to weep there. When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw
Him, she fell at His feet and said to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” When Jesus saw her
weeping and the Jews who had come with her weeping, He became perturbed and deeply troubled, and said, “Where have you
laid him?” They said to him, “Sir, come and see.”
And Jesus wept. So the Jews said, “See how He loved him.” But some of them said,
“Could not the One who opened the eyes of the blind man have done something so that this man would not have died? ”
So Jesus, perturbed again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay across it. Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Mar-
tha, the dead man’s sister, said to him, “Lord, by now there will be a stench; he has been dead for four days.” Jesus said to
her, “Did I not tell you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?” So they took away the stone. And Jesus raised His
eyes and said, “Father, I thank you for hearing Me. I know that you always hear Me; but because of the crowd here I have
said this, that they may believe that you sent Me.”
And when He had said this, He cried out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
The dead man came out, tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face was wrapped in a cloth. So Jesus said to them,
“Untie him and let him go.” Now many of the Jews who had come to Mary and seen what He had done began to believe in
Him.
Man! That’s a pretty spectacular miracle, isn’t it?! Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead! Holy mackerel! I mean, we ’ve seen Him
give sight to the blind, heal the crippled, cure the lepers. Could this be what Lent is all about?! We ’ve been getting all these hints
from Jesus about whom He is, and NOW we know! He is “ . . . the resurrection and the life . . .” Gosh, I can hardly wait for Easter to ar-
rive now! “I AM ready!” . . . How about you? AMEN!
