Stop

Take a deep breath, say He is Risen, then a deep breath out and say He is risen indeed.

Read John 20:18

Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples,”I have seen the Lord” and she told them that he had said these things to her.

Reflect

On the Sunday morning after Jesus died, Mary went to the tomb. We can imagine that she felt sad and hopeless. Jesus, her teacher and friend, had died. And when she saw that empty tomb, she must have been so confused. Where had they taken Jesus’ body? But then Jesus appeared to her – ALIVE! His death wasn’t the end. Her sadness was replaced with joy.

We celebrate Easter because Jesus rose again! Did you catch the very last part of today’s verse? Mary told the disciples what she had seen and heard.

Pray

He is Risen! He is risen indeed, Alleluia!  God, help us tell others about Jesus. He is alive and he is alive in us. We feel the joy of the Holy Spirit.  Amen!

Carry On

Celebrate by telling others about what Jesus has done for you!
