Would you decline the greatest Love?
Is hatred easier to relate to?
Another Easter begins. We will wake early, get bouquet of lilies, wear soft white shirts and silks. Homes will bake, dine, set out a feast. Malls will deck out in Easter bunnies, there will dances and dates. Ramps will catwalk, toasts will be drunk. Churches will sing relevant songs. There will be love and war, and some indifference. Elsewhere others will remember the emptied tomb when He rose from the dead.
“There be a time when our tears will fall, not because of prayers unanswered, but because we met God. ” RN
Hebrew for Tomb is Womb. Newness. Fresh beginnings. I cannot imagine how it must’ve been, to meet a Resurrected Jesus.
In Hold Hands with Stillness,* we look at Thomas who said, “_Unless I touch His wounds, I will not believe…”
The Challenge back then and now is to see Him for Who He is. Not easy, because this unsettles the way we are : skeptics & others who might imagine we are so bad, we can’t ever be accepted by Someone as Good as God.
Today I heard from Darsha who said my Book * made her angry that Jesus had to die like that. Also she was shocked at how He could say such words, Him being in that condition, from the Cross! Forgiveness and Belief are terrific Twins. They are arms Humanity may not want to say they own.
I wish you Jesus,
Always.
