And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead; and, behold, He goeth before you into Galilee ; there shall ye see Him: lo, I have told you. And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring His disciples word. Matthew, Chapter 28, verses 5-8.
A little bit ago, I was reading the part of the Bible that makes me the saddest, where they spit on Jesus and mock Him when He’s preparing to give His life for our sins…even for those that treated Him so terribly. Now, I’m reading this part which makes me exceedingly happy. I get goose bumps thinking of how amazing it must have been to be there when Jesus had arisen just as He had told them, such wonderful news that defies all explanation!
