John 20:1-10
Mary jumped to conclusions and soon had Peter and John on the run. They were busy, but they had nothing to say and were accomplishing little.
They saw the evidence for the Resurrection, but it did not change their lives.
They needed a meeting with the living Christ!
Thoughts
. We talk a great deal of religion in this country, but we need to stop long enough to let our feet catch up with our mouths. - Billy Graham
. I prayed to God that he would baptize my heart into the sense of all conditions, so that I might be able to enter into the needs and sorrows of all. - George Fox
. To be sure, we cannot make the wind blow. But we do not need to do so, for it is already blowing. Wherever the Son of God goes, the winds of God are blowing, the streams of living water are flowing, and the sun of God is smiling. He is the bodily guarantee that the sun and streams and wind of God are round me. I do not need to seek them. I am already encircled by the rush of wind and water and the radiance of light when Jesus begins to speak. - Helmut Thielicke
