He has risen.
ROMANS 6:3-11
MARK 16:1-7
REFLECTION.
The enemies of Jesus put him to death unjustly. They thought they has seen the end of him. He would no longer cause then Sleepless nights. They were wrong. On the third day, he came charging from the grave, alive. He had risen! His body was not in the grave. This time around, he would never die again. Death has no power over him anymore, he would live forever. He has gained victory over death. But the victory was not his alone.it was also that of his followers .Just as he died and rose from the death, and because of that, they too would rise from death ,never more to die. His resurrection was the pledge of their own resurrection. "Dying he destroyed our death, rising he restored our life". Alleluia!
Because he lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because he lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know he holds my Future,
And my life is worth the living, just because he lives.
