John 20: 2(b) -NIV
2(b) “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!
I’m sure we all know the story…. Read John 20: Verses 1-18
Good news story:
You have a story… and you should tell it. It’s a good news story, because His Story is your story.
Live that Storied life… every day. Don’t let people hate on or steal your story….. “The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy… John 10: 10- Jesus says, I come that ye might have life, and have it more abundantly...
The story has been told time and time again. How Jesus came down through 42 generations. Abraham to David are 14 generations. David until the carrying away into Babylon are 14 generations, and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are 14 generations…
So, Israel had no excuse for their unbelief. And if the truth be told, we have no excuse either… It’s not like when Jesus arrived, they had never heard “the story”… telling of his coming by the Prophets.
Where do you get your news from? Hopefully not all of it from the media, or social media. The news through the media is good for information but’ it’s not the “Good news”. Your “Good News” comes through the story told about Jesus and your relationship with him, based upon the Word of God. And it speaks about how that relationship allows us to live out our storied life, which is one that gives life more abundantly.
Our relationship with Jesus matters, and therefore our story matters.
Yes, the tomb is empty, that’s because He should be found in our hearts…
This is my story, and I’m sticking to it… The Joy of the Lord is my strength!
The. Story. Is. Real.
