He's Not Here
Very wet weather forced our grandchildren to hunt eggs inside.
Each time they find an egg they give it a shake and then a quick peek to see what lays inside. Occasionally, an empty egg is picked up and quickly discarded with disappointment. That made me think about Jesus' tomb.
He is not here, but has risen. Luke 24:6
When Mary and the disciples found the tomb empty at first they were distraught thinking Jesus' body had been stolen. Now that we know he was raised from death to life the empty tomb is reason to rejoice.
Next year when I host an egg hunt there will be several empty eggs with Luke 24:6 inside and those eggs will receive a special gift!
May your alleluias be sung with joy in your heart, not only tomorrow, but every day.
He is risen! Thank You, Jesus.
