Mark 16:2-6
New Living Translation (NLT)
2 Very early on Sunday morning,[a] just at sunrise, they went to the tomb. 3 On the way they were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” 4But as they arrived, they looked up and saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled aside.

5 When they entered the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a white robe sitting on the right side. The women were shocked, 6 but the angel said, “Don’t be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth,[b] who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Look, this is where they laid his body.
As I was reading this tonight.. I came across so many emotions and points that I honestly felt like blogging and sharing.. Before reading this blog.. Please read the reference above.. It will give you my insight to my madness ;)
The ladies approached the tomb with great sorrow-"who will roll away the stone??"
(The stone in today's language can mean our sadness, our pain, our weakness, our guilt, our worries, our sin, our wickedness, our wants, our problems, our situations... )
Recalling back, it wasn't just an ordinary morning, this was a Sunday morning. When you leave your worries, sadness, guilt, sin, wickedness and walk boldly into your destination.. into the sanctuary..into the tomb.. walking BOLDLY to see the unseen.. No tellin' who will be standing there to roll away the stone into the solution to the problem... to wash you clean from your sins, to give you a life of purity, a life of everything in your wildest dreams.. to give you a future... to give you destination that's ordained by our Creator.. No tellin' when we let Jesus roll away the stone-He was there.. He laid there in the sin, guilt, pain, wickedness.. He laid right there but you know what.. He has risen from all that to create a better place for us.. That is why.. That is why.. I can sit here and feel good about myself.. and feel complete.. Because He laid there... but He has also RISEN from there.. amen?
