Today is resurrection Sunday. We celebrate Jesus’ resurrection
from the dead, the ultimate act of power over death and fulfillment of prophesy.
We’re pretty good at fulfilling prophesy
too; turning away, denying Christ, worshiping idols.
Fortunately Easter doesn’t just mark Jesus’ resurrection but
also the opening of the possibility for ours as well. As I looked around today I saw a former
criminal as a pillar of his community, a long time drug addict as a doting
grandfather and a once angry wanderer as a man filled with joy and purpose.
He is risen! He is risen indeed!
