Life at a Standstill

The Cross

Life has come to a standstill across the globe. The corona virus altered our lifestyles. The disciples experienced it, too. Their days had been full of activity as they traveled with Jesus. But life came to a standstill when all of their hopes and expectations were hammered onto the cross with the body of Jesus. Then, to make matters worse, His body was gone. Stolen, they assumed. Life certainly didn’t turn out like they anticipated.

Has your hope come to a standstill, along with your schedule?

Good news! Jesus hasn’t disappeared; He is here in the midst of upheaval. He walks the road of life with us because He rose from the dead and is now interceding at His Father’s side, on our behalf!

Jesus suffered torture and crucifixion, so that we could have forgiveness of sins and a relationship with God. He wants our “new normal”

And that’s the power of Easter, to reboot life as we know it, and turn it into a victory over death. Jesus brings life! Ask Him to open your mind to understand it.

Read Luke 24 and see for yourself. Jesus is alive!
