Come To Me April 5, 2015
Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.
John 20:29
Charlotte Elliott wrote the hymn Just As I Am in 1834. She had been an invalid for many years, and though she wanted to help with a fund-raiser for a girls school, she was too ill. She felt useless, and this inner distress caused her to begin doubting her faith in Christ. She wrote Just As I Am as a response to her doubt. The crux of her distress is perhaps best expressed in these words:
Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come!
Three days after His death and burial, Jesus rose from the grave and invited the disciple whom history has nicknamed Doubting Thomas to examine the marks of His crucifixion (John 20:27). When Thomas touched Jesus wounds, he finally believed in the resurrection. Christ responded, Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed (v.29).
As Christians today, we are the ones who have not seen but still believe. Yet at times our earthly circumstances create serious questions in our souls. Even then, we cry out: Lord, I believe; help my unbelief! (Mark 9:24). Jesus welcomes us to come to Him just as we are.
Dear Jesus, help me to trust You when life doesnt make sense. Please take my doubt and replace it with fresh faith in You.
The risen Christ opens the door for you to have fullness of life.
: The world remembers Thomas the disciple for his statement of doubt about Jesus resurrection. However, it was also Thomas who showed more loyalty to Christ than many of the others. When the Pharisees were actively seeking to kill Him, Jesus said to His disciples, Let us go to Judea again (John 11:7). Thomas is the one who said, Let us also go that we may die with Him (v. 16).

BLESSED EASTER TO ALL
It is the whisper of the first breath; It is the rustle of graveclothes Being laid aside, folded and Squared on a cold ledge.
It is the sound of fingertips Brushing along a hewn wall In predawn darkness.
It is the rasp of a stone wheel Grating in its track.
What unearthly stillness Greets this once-corpse as He surveys the earth That had been his torture-chamber.
I hear these sounds Across two thousand years, and My lips strain to speak to Him.
I want to tear away My garments of death.
I grope through my darkness, My shoulder failing against the weight--
This sound I hear, This sound I hear Is the sound of my Jesus Rising again in My heart.

~Alleluia ~ He Is Risen ~
Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place
~Jesus Appears To Mary Magdalene~ John 20:11-16
11 but Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb
12 and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus' body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.
13 They asked her, Woman, why are you crying? They have taken my Lord away, she said, and I don't know where they have put him.
14 At this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realise that it was Jesus.
15 Woman, he said, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for? Thinking he was the gardener, she said, Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.
16 Jesus said to her, Mary. She turned towards him and cried out in Aramaic, Rabboni! (which means Teacher).
