It's Not Too Late

But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen.” Luke 24:1–6

“He is not here, he has risen.” Six simple words directed to a few broken and disillusioned people; six shocking and confusing words that altered the course of the universe itself. Death seems to be the final act, yet Jesus conquered death and lives in power. In his last moments with the disciples, recorded in Matthew 28, he told them (and us) that all of the power contained in heaven and all of the power contained in earth was his -- all known and unknown power, everywhere. He concludes, “I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matt 28:19)

Resurrection of Jesus is not just a religious tenet, it’s the proof that it’s not too late:

- for God
- for your marriage
- for your kids
- for your job
- for your dream
- for your community
- for you

What if there really is hope for that very thing you had lost hope in? The resurrection says that there is.

Peace, hope and love
