Whispers of the Resurrection





It's Monday morning and I can't help but think of the day after resurrection Sunday. This past weekend we spent time with family, friends, and church family. We were able to reflect on what our Savior did for us. The torture, the cross, literally to hell and back…the empty tomb. Such love.

But what about Monday.

Way before Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, blogs and any other social media - words, thoughts, opinions had to travel by good 'ole fashioned word-of-mouth.

I wonder what Monday looked like.

Whispers, shouts, praise, shock, awe, wonder, hope - "He is risen as HE SAID." (Matthew 28:6)

As He said.

What has He said to you? What prayers have you stopped praying? What promise have you let go?

Because of "yesterday," because He lives, because He is the resurrected Savior we have hope for Monday, hope for tomorrow, hope for eternity.

After the "hype" of easter, once I put up the kids' easter baskets and the candy is stale and old.

I can believe in what HE SAID.

May my life reflect the love of a risen Savior, whose words are true.
