“Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?”
This words from Jesus at the empty tomb could describe every person who is troubled in this
life. When we seek and find Jesus, our lives are made complete and our brokenness is healed.
Sure, we will still have trials and tribulations, but His very presence will bring us peace that
passes understanding. A moment later when Jesus speaks her name, Mary to her, she
immediately recognizes the risen Savior. Friend, listen for the voice of the Lord calling out your
name, especially in times of struggle and stress. He will be right there with you. Who are you
seeking?
A Joyous Resurrection Day!

“Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, and constant in prayer.”
Great words from St. Paul for us in the good times and the times of struggle. Jesus tells us also that in this life we will have tribulation but to be of good cheer, because He has overcome the world. So…if we think everything is always going to be easy or if someone tells us if we live or believe a certain way then life will be without challenges, we will be continually disappointed. The truth is that life is tough but that there will also be times of hope and celebration. The key to living a fulfilled, contented Christian life is summed up in the last 3 words of the quote above. Being “constant in prayer” will keep us in continual fellowship with Jesus. Abiding in Him brings forth peace and as we get better at hearing His still small voice, He will lead us throughout our day. By the way, if you just read this, send me an email at wakeuppc@gmail.com and I will send you a blessing!
Rejoicing in Hope,
