Tear-Filled Eyes at the Empty Tomb
John 20:11-18
The Holy Spirit makes it possible for us to experience Jesus’ resurrection life in our lives today!
In the midst of grief and uncertainty, we often fail to recognize God’s presence and activity with us and around us.
Jesus’ resurrection is the beginning of new creation. He is the divine gardener who turns chaos into beauty and fruitfulness.
Give time and space to quiet yourself so that you can listen and hear Jesus speak your name.
When God is at work in ways that are new and unfamiliar to us, we can trust that they will always be filled with His goodness and love.
Jesus’ resurrection makes it possible for us to have the same kind of intimate relationship with Father God that Jesus has with Him.
Hope in God invites us to keep our eyes on the beautiful things that He will bring about.
Hope in God doesn’t blind us to the unpleasant realities of the present.
Hope invites us to keep moving forward with God and with each other into the good and loving purposes of His kingdom.

Blessing for Easter Sunday
By Kate Bowler and Jessica Richie
Oh God, we stretch out our hands to you
in this early Easter darkness.
We need you to pull us up
and set us on our feet again,
for we are weak and tired.
God, have mercy. Christ, have mercy.
Spirit, have mercy.
God, on that first Easter morning
while it was still dark,
one woman went alone to the tomb
to do what could be done to honor you,
though hope had drained away.
Two bright angels met her there, and then –
how is it possible? –
you were there, fully alive, beyond belief.
Blessed are we who stretch out
our hands to you
in doubt and grief,
in sickness of body and mind and spirit,
our prayers not fully realized,
rejoicing . . . anyway.
For that is what makes us Easter people:
carrying forth the realized hope
of the Resurrected One,
singing our alleluias great and small,
while it is still dark.
Christ is risen. Christ will come again.
Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.
