Growing in Resurrection Light, April 29 Worship

This time of year you can almost stand and watch things grow. All around us the earth is sprouting new life. Plants, seeds, or bulbs that have been resting in the ground now are coming to life. This can serve as a reminder to us of what we celebrate in Jesus’ Resurrection from the dead. After He rested in the tomb He came back to life. Often times in our lives we go through the same cycles that we see played out in nature. We go through times like winter when everything is frozen in place. During those times we may wish and pray for a kind of spring when life can begin again. Jesus’ Resurrection clearly shows us that God can bring us back to life from even the most dormant winter blues or the biggest challenges we face. Staying connected to Him will always bring us back to life. Alleluia! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!
