Youth Ministry Round Up #223


Greetings Awesome Person,

Easter is never really over. You may be putting away the yard sign or switching out kitchen towels for summer, but Easter never ends. Such is the case with this verse,

and they asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?” Mark 16:3

Like the women being concerned about the physical obstacle of the stone blocking the tomb entrance, you may be worried about the obstacles that lay ahead in your own life.

Will I be happy in my job? Will my marriage last? How can I make more money to pay off my student loan? Will my spiritual fervor come back? The answer to these questions are on the other side of the stone. Who will help me?

The women's' concerns were legitimate. They knew the stone would be too heavy for all of them let alone one of them to move. Who would help them? The Romans? Not a chance. The disciples? In hiding.

I don't know how long they walked and worried but their concerns were unfounded. The stone was already moved. God moved it.

When he inquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, “Yesterday, at one in the afternoon, the fever left him.”

Then the father realized that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” So he and his whole household believed. John 4:51-53

If you're asking, "who will help me move this stone?", your concerns are legitimate but it will be unfounded. The stone has already been moved.

Jesus is still alive.

Paul
