The hope of the Eleven (facebook series)
What did the eleven say to each other?', those two days after the crucifixion? Did they forget their friend's last promise,"I'm coming back...It's gonna be OK." My imagination tells me there were alot of 'what ifs' and, 'what could have beens' that were spoken. At least shared memories of water being turned to wine, crowds being fed, storms being stilled...yes, those eleven saw and heard so much, so very much. Today I join the eleven in hope of resurrection, tomorrow... but resurrection can happen tonight! Resurrection happens any time we come to Jesus-we may come brashly like Peter, doubting like Thomas or reverently like Mary. Or like the prodigal, when we decide to come home, the father will run to meet us and, will interrupt our well planned speech-- the party will be on. Jesus said, "I am praying on their behalf so that my father may be glorified." I pray on your behalf tonight too, that the father would be glorified in all you say and do and become. He is risen!!!
