Do Not Weep

Do Not Weep by ric gustafson


Jesus and a large group of his followers were approaching the village of Nain. Jesus stared in the distance and saw that a funeral procession was coming.  It was a procession for a widow who had lost her only son. When Jesus's group and the procession met, they both stopped.
Jesus walked over to the grieving widow. " Do not weep". He walked over to the funeral bier and then touched it.
The funeral bearers froze in fear.
" Young man, I say unto thee Arise".
All of a sudden, they could hear a noise from inside the bier. Just then, the young man sat up and began to speak. The young man got out, joined his mother and she began to cry with joy. As the two groups left, there was much trembling and fear from all those who witnessed this miracle.
