Have you ever wondered why the stone was rolled away?<\/p>\n

It certainly wasn’t so that Jesus could get out — Later when the disciples are in the upper room with the doors locked, Jesus simply appears in their presence.<\/p>\n

The gospels tell us there was an earthquake and the stone rolled away – But I assure you that it wasn\u2019t for Jesus\u2019 benefit.<\/p>\n

It was for ours.
\nIt wasn\u2019t so Jesus could get out.
\nIt was so Mary and others could get in
\nand see that Jesus was gone.<\/p>\n

I wonder if there is a stone in your life that needs to be rolled away so that you can discover the resurrected Savior?<\/p>\n
