An Invitation to Worship This Week
March 31, 2024

Mark’s gospel tells of three women going to the tomb very early in the morning with spices to anoint the dead body of Jesus.  Instead, the tomb is empty of his body and they are alarmed by a young man (an angelic messenger) who tells them that Jesus is raised from the dead and that they are to tell his disciples to go to Galilee where they will see Jesus. Amazed and terrified, the women run from the tomb afraid and say nothing to anyone.

The book of Acts shows that the women delivered the gospel message.  We hear Peter preaching the good news of Jesus Christ.  Peter tells of how Jesus healed and did good to others, and how he was crucified and rose from the dead to eat and drink with disciples.  We hear that Jesus command them to preach the good news of who he was and what he did.

The empty tomb is filled with hope, power, and possibility. The tomb with nothing can mean everything to those who are lonely, hurting, worried and fearful.  The perfect love of Jesus eases our fears and replaces them with a peace that passes all understanding. Where are the empty places in your life that long to be filled with the peace-filled loving presence of God?  How have you experienced the love of Christ in the past?  Where can you imagine God bringing you hope for your future?
