Martha may have shown a lack of good priorities when Jesus came to visit their home some time before, but I think she sure displayed a strong faith in this account! Martha has witnessed Jesus' miracles and understands that Jesus has the power to heal/raise Lazarus. ("Lord," Martha said to Jesus, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.") And what a clear and beautiful testimony she gives as she replies to Jesus' question in v. 25 and 26. "Yes, Lord,...I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world." Lord, give me a faith like Martha's so that even when the darkness is all around, I can boldy turn to You, the Light of the world!
