ABIDE | REJOICE IN HIS SALVATION {ISAIAH 25:6-9}



Happy Easter!

He is alive. Oh, dear Sisters, He is alive!

He sits with you, He prays for you, He waits with the Father for you.

For you who wonder if a laugh will ever again escape your lips – He lives for you. For you who weep with gratitude for gifts you could not possibly have earned – He lives for you. For you whose eyes strain to see something – anything – good around the bend – He lives for you. For you who sit alone in the stillness of grief and silence – He lives for you. For you whose arms are linked to fear on one side and hope on the other – He lives for you.

For you who are soul-weary from searching among dead things for the life your heart longs for – He lives for you.

He lived and died to buy your pardon, just like the old hymn says. He wrapped His infinite being in flesh for you {John 1:14}. He endured temptation and humiliation, scorn and scourge for you {Hebrews 4:14-16, Matthew 27:15-44}. He satisfied the wrath of the holy and just God the Father for you {Romans 5:6-11}. And He walked out of the grave that Sunday morning for you.

He lives. Hallelujah, the Gospel is true!
