Everything in Between – grief & hope (Easter Sunday)
In the Easter story, the women at the tomb were terrified. There was probably uncertainty and awe. The men did not believe the women. Peter checks it out and wondered. We might find ourselves with grief or uncertainty. Not necessarily joy. Remember back to other Advent and Christmas stories. Angels appear and tell Zechariah and Mary and the shepherds to not be afraid. In this story, when the women see two men in gleaming clothes and are terrified, there is no commandment to not be afraid. We are invited to remember what Jesus told us. The repeated reminders to not be afraid. The anointment of Jesus to bring good news to the poor, release the captives, free those who are oppressed. And that Jesus hung out with the outcasts. And he taught us that whatever you do to the least of us, we do to him. We don’t have to wonder how we move from grief to hope. We just have to remember. Love wins. Always.
Luke 24:1-12
