DAILY READINGS: Numbers 9:1-10:10; Proverbs 6:20-7:27; Mark 16:1-20
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. John 20:20
On Resurrection evening the disciples hid in the upper room, the doors shut for fear of the Jews. Suddenly, the risen Lord appeared in their midst. They saw His face, heard His voice, and beheld His hands and side. They had 20/20 vision (John 20:20) and they were glad! One day we, too, will see Him and be glad. Till then may we view Him with the eye of faith when we remember Him in the breaking of the bread. —Rex Trogdon
Till He come we take the cup; as we at His table sup,
Eye and heart are lifted up! We give Thee thanks, O Lord. —Horatius Bonar
