Matthew 5:21-42
Louis Tamburro

This text reveals that sometimes Jesus’ timing isn’t our timing. But it also reveals that his compassion still remains even in the delays. The good news is Hebrews 13:8 says “Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever,” which means the same Jesus we in the text, is the same Jesus available to us today. It means you can approach him today just like Jairus and the bleeding woman approached him. So take his hand for your salvation, and take his hand in your times of desperation. Take his hand trusting he knows what he’s doing even in the delays. Take his hand trusting that his compassion on the cross promises he’ll always love you, and his power in the resurrection promises he’ll always be ready to wake you. He’ll always love you, and he’ll always be ready to wake you from the nap of death whispering...Talathi Cumi....
