May the Easter message live in our hearts each day as we celebrate Our Risen Saviour.
Have a most Blessed Easter!!
"After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week,
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
There was a violent
earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the
tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning,
and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they
shook and became like dead men.
The angel said to the
women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was
crucified. 6 He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the
place where he lay. 7 Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen
from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee .
There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
So the women hurried
away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said.
They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go
and tell my brothers to go to Galilee ; there
they will see me.”
While the women were
on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief
priests everything that had happened. When the chief priests had met with the
elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling
them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away
while we were asleep.’ If this report
gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” So the soldiers took the money and did as they
were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to
this very day.
Then the eleven
disciples went to Galilee , to the mountain where
Jesus had told them to go. When they saw
him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All
authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey
everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very
end of the age.” - Mathew 28
Blessings to you and your homes,
