Christ is Risen! Christ is Risen Indeed!Have you heard? Mary and some other women went to the tomb where Joseph of Aramethia had laid Jesus' body to prepare the body for burial. They weren't able to do that Saturday because that was Sabbath and work is prohibited. Thankfully Joseph was able to get permission to take the body of Jesus to the tomb.
Mary and some of the other women found the tomb empty! They thought some grave robber had come in, but there were angels there who reminded them of Jesus' words: He would be crucified but would rise in three days. Not only did Mary and the women have this experience, but also Peter and John went to the tomb to check it out. And there was no body.
And not just that there was no body, but that there had been guards standing at the huge stone placed in front of the tomb. And the stone had been rolled away! And then some disciples meet Jesus on the Road to Emmaus. Jesus is seen repeatedly in the next forty days!
Have you ever wished that something precious that had been lost could be found again? This is IT! Jesus died. Jesus rose! Jesus is going to come again! Incredible!
Happy Easter everyone.
