Martha page 11 by ric gustafson
One night, Lazarus and his sisters were sitting in the courtyard.
" There is a rumor". He sighed. " The Sanhedrin is looking for a way to get rid of Jesus".
Martha became angry. " He's done nothing wrong".
" I have other bad news". He sighed again. " Herod beheaded John the Baptist".
Mary began to cry. " Wasn't he a cousin to Jesus?".
" Yes".
Martha thought for a moment. " Did they bury him?".
" Yes they did". His voice hesitated. " Mary, did Thomas tell you when they will be heading here again?".
Mary blushed. " Thomas told me they have started south again".
" Good". Martha grinned. " We need to prepare for their arrival".
