Scripture
John 11:1-3
1Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2(This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.)
3So the sisters sent word to Jesus, Lord, the one you love is sick.
John 11:5
5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
John 15:15
15I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
John 11:21-26
21Lord, Martha said to Jesus, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
22But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.
23Jesus said to her, Your brother will rise again.
24Martha answered, I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
25Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;
26and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?

40But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!
