He Is Alive

Can you believe that it is already Easter? Where has the time flown?

But, hey, time is not the reason for this post. :)

"But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” And they remembered his words, and returning from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest." Luke 24:1-9 


What do I want to focus on? 


1. The question "Why do you seek the living among the dead?" 

  • This just screams "power" in my mind. Death was defeated at the resurrection! How amazing is that?! "He is not here, but has risen." How much we should rejoice! Our Savior is alive!

2. "And they remembered his words, and returning from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest." 

  • Are we doing this? Are we spreading the word that Jesus is alive? That He was not defeated by death but death was defeated by Him.
Just something to think about. :)


I hope y'all had an amazing Resurrection Sunday! God Bless!
