"Early Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone was rolled aside from the entrance.

"She ran and found Simon Peter and me (John, writer) and said, 'They have taken the Lord's body out of the tomb, and I don't know where they have put him.'

"We ran to the tomb to see, I outran Peter and got there first, and stooped and looked in and saw the linen cloth lying there, but I didn't go in. Then Simon Peter arrived and went on inside. He also noticed the cloth lying there, while the swath that had covered Jesus' head was rolled up in a bundle and was lying at the side. Then I went in too, and saw, and believed that He had risen---for until then we hadn't realized that the Scriptures said He would come back to life again!"

~ John 20:1-8 LAB

Happy Easter!

Yesterday wasn't just one day. It was a day for the rest of our lives! Jesus wasn't the ONLY one to raise from the dead........He was only the first! As believers in Him, we too raise from death to life. Today and every day. We have new Life because of Him! Today and every day is a 'good day'. And it doesn't stop at death's door. Like it didn't for Jesus.

Our new life continues forever.

What a plan!

What a life!
