Jesus Christ is risen! Amen! Alleluia!

The tomb is empty! Jesus has risen from the dead. Amen. Alleluia!

This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad.

JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD.

Let us glorify the Lord for casting out our fear and shining His wonderful Light into the darkness of the tomb. 

His LIGHT shines PEACE and LOVE throughout the world.

May we celebrate this Easter season with HOPE and JOY knowing that the Lord is with us. On this day of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ who died and rose from the dead for the salvation of the whole world, may we let our faith shine.

"On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them, "They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don't know where they put him." So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in. When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed. For they did not yet understand the scripture that he had to rise from the dead." John 20:1-9 

The stone was rolled away. Imagine how the disciples must have felt! They saw and they believed! After all their hopes had been shattered, Jesus rose from the dead! Jesus is the Light who shattered the darkness! He came to make all things new. He broke the bonds of death to make a new creation. Life overcame death. Love never fails!
