“Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, though he dies, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?’” John 11:25-26 (ESV)
The value of life seems to go up when you come face to face with death. If you have ever had someone close to you die, you know what I mean. We tend to take life for granted until we brush up against the reality of death. Maybe you have leaned on the door of death personally through tragedy or health issues.
When I almost died in a Jet Ski accident on February 23, 1986, at 2:20pm at Buhlow Lake in Alexandria, Louisiana, the value I placed on life elevated exponentially. When I held my daughter, Tori, for the first time, the value I had placed on life catapulted again. Five years later, when I held my son, Austin, for the first time, the value I had placed on life skyrocketed yet again.
Martha expressed her faith in Jesus and acknowledged that her brother, Lazarus, would not have died had Jesus been there. Jesus, the One who establishes the value of a life, declared, “I am the resurrection and the life.” Martha understood that her brother would rise again on the last day. She was looking to the distant future. Jesus reminded her of the immediate reality.
Do you believe that Jesus is who He says He is? The value of your life has already been established by the saving work Jesus did for you on the cross. Jesus took your place. You can know Jesus, the resurrection and the life, personally and eternally.
Following Jesus Every Day,
Stephen Trammell

You and Tonya will always hold a special place in my heart. You both prayed and walked with me on my journey dealing with a brain tumor in 2014. Then again when I suffered a heart attack in 2017 and I was “coded” and had to be put on a ventilator because they thought I had suffered a static seizure. You cane to the hospital and prayed over me. While I was not aware you were there, I later learned you left such an impression on the medical team. You are a true Shepherd and Tonya is a true P31 woman. You continue to demonstrate through your words and actions the value of other peoples lives.
I seriously don’t know how people can get through life without knowing Jesus and without a community of believers helping them during the difficult times.
