HAPPY RESURRECTION SUNDAY

Just in case you haven’t read about the resurrection of Jesus Christ before, you can read it here below. It was in my inbox this morning from the American Bible Society. Above is a song that I’m sure that I’ve posted before but I just love this song. It’s by Douglas Miller called “My Soul Is Anchored In The Lord.” Go out and love on someone today!!!

Matthew 28:1-20 (Good News Translation)

God’s Faithful Word of Hope

Introduction

Matthew 28:1-20: An angel rolls the stone from the tomb, revealing that Jesus has been raised to life. The women rush to tell the disciples; and on the way, they meet the risen Christ. Later, Jesus appears to his disciples on a hill in Galilee, calling them to go forth and make disciples of all people.

Today’s Scripture: Matthew 28:20b

[Jesus said], “I will be with you always, to the end of the age.”

Today’s Reading

The Resurrection

(Mark 16.1-10; Luke 24.1-12; John 20.1-10)

1After the Sabbath, as Sunday morning was dawning, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.2Suddenly there was a violent earthquake; an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled the stone away, and sat on it.3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.4The guards were so afraid that they trembled and became like dead men.

5The angel spoke to the women. “You must not be afraid,” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.6He is not here; he has been raised, just as he said. Come here and see the place where he was lying.7Go quickly now, and tell his disciples, ‘He has been raised from death, and now he is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see him!’ Remember what I have told you.”

8So they left the tomb in a hurry, afraid and yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.

9Suddenly Jesus met them and said, “Peace be with you.” They came up to him, took hold of his feet, and worshiped him.10“Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to them. “Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
