Revelation 1:4-8
John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and freed us from our sins by his blood, and made us to be a kingdom, priests serving his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. Look! He is coming with the clouds; every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and on his account all the tribes of the earth will wail. So it is to be. Amen. “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.
Reflection
A post resurrection encounter with Jesus. We continue to have these encounters with Jesus. If we but even look a small amount, we know that Jesus has risen and lives. Jesus, who gave his blood, gave his life to free us from our sins, lives eternally. Jesus comes to us and stays with us through all. Yes, Jesus is alive and guiding us in our lives.
Through God's Holy Spirit we encounter God daily. We awake to the glory of a new day to serve in the love that Jesus has taught all people by what he has done and still does to this day. We are blessed with Jesus presence and walk each moment with him. For some the Easter Service is a moment in time to come to church. For most it is church every moment of life. We live in union with the risen Savior along with the Holy Spirit we live our lives moment by moment. We don't come to church to unite with God for an hour, we come to Church to praise and worship our Lord, our Savior, our God. We go from a place reunited with the Children of God in a common purpose and live in unity with God each second.
Look! Jesus is coming! The resurrected Savior of all. Jesus is coming to live each moment of life with you and will lead and guide you along the way. A post resurrection encounter with Jesus... all day long!
Prayer
Lord; I sing praise to you, in the morning, while fishing, during breakfast, in the factory, in conversation with friends, at lunch, in the evening with family... all day long... today... tomorrow... and forever. --- Amen
