Re:Verse passage – John 20:1-18 (day five) “Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and saw the stone already taken away from the tomb.”
As we read and study this first Resurrection Appearance this week, I came across this quote/insight from Dr. Bob Utley. “Remember the stone was removed to let the eyewitnesses into the tomb, not to let Jesus out. His new resurrection body did not have the physical limits of His earthly body (i.e., John 20:19,26).”
It caused me to think/remember many of the ways and times that God uses (has used in my life) to show me Who He is, How He is working, and What He has done. Has been a sweet week of worship and reflection. It is God who shows/reveals His Character, His Ways and Purposes,and His Words and Promises to us. Maybe today, we should all inventory and recount those times where God’s goodness and activity were revealed to us by His grace and power!!
