Read Matthew 28:1-7

SCRIPTURE REFLECTION
He is risen. He is risen, indeed! Just when it seemed that death had won, life came forth. Just when it seemed that all had gone to darkness, the Light of the world shined forth.

PRAYER
God, what a day of celebration and joy this is! On Easter two thousand years ago, Jesus defeated death, darkness, sin, and evil. This Easter, I celebrate the new life that I now have because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Help me to share the joy of my salvation with all those I encounter and bring them alongside me to experience the joy found in You.
