When we think of Easter we think of light, flowers, and sunshine.
But let's remember that when Mary Magdalene came to the tomb of Jesus, it was dark. It was dark for Mary and for the whole human race. Mary thought someone had stolen Jesus' body. Then she heard her name spoken, "Mary," and she knew right away it was Jesus. The darkness and fear in her heart left. Mary and the whole human race began to live in light and hope with Jesus walking with us.
Whatever darkness may be in your life--hurt, pain, depression, death, loss of loved ones--know that Jesus walks with you! We will have joy from sorrow and peace from pain.
Christ is risen!
