Pray this Lazaroo in sudden awareness:

“…refusing to be comforted…”
(Matthew 2:18)

When the pain is that great, Jesus…

only then does someone refuse to be comforted.

It’s hard on their friends and family, who desperately want to help.

But far harder on the one who grieves.

The words, gestures, offers to “let me know if you need anything”

are not only useless

they’re offensive –

as if such things could somehow lessen the agony.

Is that how You felt, Father

when they crucified Your Son?
