1. Jesus is not celebrating diversity or difference. He is promising sameness. Redundancy. A repeat of what has happened before.
  2. Jesus sees His disciples facing future uncertainty and responds not with details about dates and times and procedures to follow, but with His promise and His presence.
  3. We have one thing which will never change. We have a shepherd who knows us by name and who promises to speak to us in all of life’s situations.
  4. Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. But if you pause the story...then it is not just about Jesus raising Lazarus.
  5. When the story begins in creation and ends in restoration, all the moments in between are filled with the working of God.
