He has been raised; he is not here. Be amazed!

Morning: Psalms 93, 98; Exodus 12:14-27; I Corinthians 15:1-11
Evening: Psalm 66; Mark 16:1-8

What if Mary, Mary and Salome had come to the tomb and found Jesus’s body? There would be no Easter, no Church, no saints, no Vatican, no Canterbury, no year 2020, no world as we know it, nothing of all that has arisen from what is described by the young man in the white robe: “He has been raised; he is not here.” We still know so little about what this event means. It is a mystery beyond our comprehension, but we have built a world on it. Both the event and its consequences are astounding. Be amazed!
