Resurrection Sunday
Morning comes, as it always has—
quietly, without announcement.
The stone is not rolled away to prove anything,
but to reveal what has already been done.
Christ is risen.
Not as spectacle,
but as truth.
Death did not yield gradually.
It was overcome completely—
not by force, but by surrender fulfilled.
The world is the same, and yet it is not.
Suffering has not vanished,
but it is no longer final.
What seemed like absence was not absence.
What felt like silence was not silence.
God was at work where no one could see.
And now, the work is revealed—
not to remove all doubt,
but to anchor all hope.
Resurrection does not erase Friday.
It redeems it.
It does not rush us past waiting.
It gives waiting meaning.
The stone is rolled away,
but not every question.
Faith remains—
not because everything is explained,
but because something has happened
that cannot be undone.
⸻
Today, we do not strive to understand—we receive what has been given.
