Thought for Tuesday April 3

The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
Our soul waits for the LORD,
who is our help and our shield.
May your kindness, O LORD, be upon us
who have put our hope in you.
The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

 

John 20: 11 – 18  Mary Magdalene stayed outside the tomb weeping.  And as she wept, she bent over into the tomb and saw two angels in white sitting there, one at the head and one at the feet where the Body of Jesus had been.  And they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?"  She said to them, "They have taken my Lord, and I don't know where they laid him."

Have I ever experienced a time when I couldn’t find Jesus?   What must it have been like for Mary Magdalene to go from the depths of this despair to the knowledge that Jesus had risen from the dead?

Action:  Look for Jesus and be overjoyed when you find him.
