Ezekiel 37:1-14
Psalm 130
Romans 8:6-11
John 11:1-45
The readings this week focus us on God's activity bringing life from death. Ezekiel gives us the valley of dry bones, calling the people Israel to life while in captivity. Paul declares to us that Jesus is raised by the glory of the Father. John tells us the story of Lazarus, in which we too may hear the promise to each of us that on the last day Jesus will call us to new life in the resurrection. Perhaps a strange theme to hear in the midst of Lent, but our new life is begun to be made known even now as we die to the old life of sin.
