Mini Holy Week, I suppose. Last post on Thursday…absence Friday and Saturday. Resurrection Sunday! I only wish I was a profound as the real resurrection. Maybe…
Seems more crazy than profound. You have women visiting the tomb, carrying with them spices and oils with which to anoint the body of Jesus, and Jesus is gone. Mark has them running in fear from the tomb (original ending…that's all folks). Women crying in gardens, then seeing angels…oh no, it's Jesus!
Walks with Jesus on the road to Emmaus…breaking bread and recognition! Breakfast on the beach.
Who'd believe any of this.
But it's Sunday and after days of business and distraction, the miracle beckons. I think not having to explain the unexplainable is one of the gifts of Sabbath…
