They say nothing to anyone, for they were shaken from their darkness and forced to see that indeed, it is morning, the beginning of a new day. Shaken, they remember the healing they received and gave. They remembered that He treated them as equals. They remembered how the little towns and villages and people they encountered always wanted them to stay, but He said they had to move on. You have to move on.
Love is strong than death.
Hope is stronger than despair. God's dream is more of a reality than the nightmares of history. Jesus' victory over death calls us into a future that is very different than the past. He has gone ahead of you , which means there is something beyond what surrounds you right now, something good, just, generous, healing. It is practised in the life of the church in our ongoing pastoral and worship life and our mission in the world.
