Do you?

 

Friday we were left with words such as Disappointment, Dismay, and Desolation.  

But it’s Sunday morning. Mary Magdalene and others go to the tomb of Jesus, filled with Dread. They believe their Lord and Savior is Dead and His cold body will be lying there. Instead, the tomb is empty, Jesus’ body is gone. They are Desperate to find it, to find Him.

And He finds them and their Despair is quickly turned to Delight. Jesus is their Deliverer.

A week later, however, we encounter one last D word. Doubt. You know the story. Thomas, one of the disciples, wasn’t with the others when Jesus appeared to them. He doubted what they told him. He wouldn’t believe until he put his fingers where the nails had pierced Jesus’ hands.

When Jesus appeared to him, Thomas did just that – put his fingers in the holes in Jesus’ hands and in His side. Then he no longer doubted.

What about you? Without having seen Jesus yourself, do you believe in the resurrection? Do you have faith that Jesus Christ came to save you from your sins?

I pray you Do. May God bless you, Chris
