We all have friends, friend of friends, and people we love because of their activities. If they became sick or hurt in some way, we would be extremely concerned, especially if they could die. Sharing this story with someone can show them that Jesus is never too late to take care of the situation and that he will not neglect their needs. He seemed to deal with each one differently as to their individual faith. Martha was more logical in her faith, although grieving, knew her brother was in heaven. Mary grievied mostly for the loss of brother, not thinking of the hereafter. Jesus was affected by the broken hearts of Martha and Mary and grieved for their pain. Jesus's compassion was manifested by weeping,b not for the death of a friend, but for the pain of the living. All those who lose loved ones can be comforted by knowing Jesus is there for them, and that all they have to do, is call on his name adn don't lose faith.
