Good sermon

Good sermon today - the one I was looking for last week actually :) about waiting. How Jesus waits to answer us because he loves us. In fact, in today's text it said,
"Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. So when He heard that he was sick, He then stayed two days longer in the place where He was."
which seems counter-intuitive to us, but then again - we're not God. But the quote that most stuck with me was one from a Scottish theologian (McCheyne?) that my pastor has been quoting a lot lately - I think he read a lot of his work on his recent sabbatical.
"For are we not immortal until our work is done?"
Think about it. I'm off to my first home group meeting - I'll let you know how it goes :)
