Deuteronomy 9:1-10:11; Ecclesiastes 11:1-12:14; Luke 9:1-17
Go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. John 20:17
What a message of victorious assurance Mary was given, to personally deliver to the saddened disciples! The next verse records that Mary went straight to the disciples to tell them the happy news. Social media enables people to tell others about their latest interests. But there is no message, no power, and no peace greater than delivering the hope-filled message of our crucified and risen Lord. —Rick Morse
Thine be the glory risen conquering Son;
Endless is the victory, Thou o’er death has won.
Let our doubting spirits find a voice to sing:
Christ who died is living; death has lost its sting. —Edmond L. Budry
