LOL: Luke 8:52 "And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.” It's one thing to respond to something in an amusing manner when the thing or event before you is in line with the reaction that's factual; but if you LOL about something you've never heard of and are not 100% sure that it is so, to you I would say hold the laughter. There just so happened to be on this particular day a man from Galilee on the planet and in their neighborhood who possessed some exceptional power that happen to be divine and definite in every aspect. Jesus had come to the rescue of some parents by their request, to heal their daughter; but before he could get there in time, she died. Right here is where the story heightens just because, the same ones that mourn for the death of the damsel in the same breath--Jesus tells them she is not dead, but sleeping--these would be mourners LOL. The verses following shows Jesus not only being commander of earth and heaven, but he is commanders of his own space. LOL Even without the power, me personally...I would do the exact same thing if there were people around me who didn't believe in my abilities. I would excuse them from "my space" LOL. Jesus did not need the distraction nor the negativity when doing his Father's business. To us, in the absence of breath, we call it death; but to him (God and Creator of life) in the absence of breath it's sleep; and in the absence of eternal life it then becomes death. LOL You can LOL when you know that the one who created you can raise you. You can LOL when the one who called you for the job can equip you for the calling even with no experience or credentials. You can LOL when people put their mouth on you about this that and the other, and say all manner of evil about you, and you know that the God that you serve will make your enemy your footstool and put padding under your feet while resting on your enemy as it were...and nobody on the planet will move your groove. LOL I do believe that was the last time that they (the so call mourners) LOL about anything that Jesus did from here on out. Don't LOL until you SFY (See For Yourself).👀. - BLESSINGS Because Jesus Is In The House🏡
