“I was a widow, and my only son had died. As they carried him out through the gate of Nain, many people from the city walked with me. Jesus met us there. When the Lord saw me, he had compassion on me and said, "Weep not." He came and touched the bier, and those who carried it stood still. He said, "Young man, I say unto thee, Arise." My son sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to me. Fear came on everyone, and they glorified God, saying God had visited his people. He sees the grieving, and his compassion moves him to act.”
The widow of Nain · Luke 7:11-17
