John 11:29

27 “Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”

28 After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

And when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him.

30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.

31 When the Jews who were in the house consoling Mary saw how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.
