Welcome to Wisdom for the Day, your daily source for spiritual refreshment and guidance.
00:00:07.413 --> 00:00:08.734
I'm Rick.
00:00:08.734 --> 00:00:13.651
Join me as I dive into God's Word to find clarity and strength for life's challenges.
00:00:13.651 --> 00:00:19.466
Let me help you embrace each day with faith and wisdom, ready to feel inspired.
00:00:19.466 --> 00:00:21.065
Let's get started.
00:00:22.820 --> 00:00:32.146
Today is Day 48, morning Travels From Gospel of John, chapter 20, verse 14, from the New Living Translation.
00:00:32.146 --> 00:00:36.390
She turned around and saw Jesus standing there.
00:00:36.390 --> 00:00:46.201
If you had been in the Jerusalem cemetery on resurrection morning, you would have witnessed a most unusual scene.
00:00:46.201 --> 00:00:55.786
In a place where people typically move quietly, there was a flurry of activity, people dashing about with confusion and astonishment on their faces.
00:00:55.786 --> 00:01:08.368
A woman, mary Magdalene, hurried back to Jerusalem, only for two young men, peter and John, to soon come sprinting in the same direction towards the tomb that stood mysteriously open.
00:01:08.368 --> 00:01:17.329
Now, amidst all this, one figure calmly walked through the garden, christ Jesus having just stepped out of his tomb.
00:01:18.512 --> 00:01:21.243
Now, this garden walk was unlike any other in history.
00:01:21.243 --> 00:01:32.153
As Jesus appeared to Mary to share the astonishing news of his resurrection, her world was turned upside down, and it turns our world upside down too.
00:01:32.153 --> 00:01:37.948
It wasn't just Jesus' spirit or personality that rose that morning.
00:01:37.948 --> 00:01:40.634
It was his entire physical body.
00:01:40.634 --> 00:01:46.810
He had defeated the powers of evil and death could no longer hold him.
00:01:46.810 --> 00:01:49.740
This is the good news of that day.
00:01:50.722 --> 00:01:57.822
When Mary ran back to the disciples, she wasn't with news of a stolen body or with a tampered grave.
00:01:57.822 --> 00:02:10.225
She had a joyous proclamation I've seen the Lord and ever since that moment, jesus' disciples have been running to spread the incredible news Christ is risen.
00:02:10.225 --> 00:02:12.248
He has risen indeed.
00:02:12.248 --> 00:02:16.495
Pray with me, father, god.
00:02:16.495 --> 00:02:20.445
Our walk with Christ has assured us that he is risen.
00:02:20.445 --> 00:02:25.675
Fill us to witness boldly to you in our conversations with others.
00:02:25.675 --> 00:02:30.122
In Jesus' precious name, we pray Amen.
00:02:30.122 --> 00:02:36.955
