He is risen! He has risen indeed!

Monday - April 9

Easter Sunday is always special to me. Our faith is based on the historical fact that Jesus conquered death. We don't believe in a fairy tale, or wishful thinking, but a definite, documented event in history that had hundreds of eye-witnesses that would rather give their lives than deny what they knew to be true--that Jesus indeed did rise from the dead.

For Peter and the other disciples this fact of history turned their lives upside down. Fear, doubt, confusion and defeat was turned into Courage, faith, hope and victory as they came face to face with the risen Savior.

As you come face to face with Jesus, the conqueror of death, in your life, may God give you everything you need to be victorious as you live for Him.

Jesus makes the difference in our lives because He is alive. Let Him make the difference today for you. Call upon Him in your workplace today, or school, or family, etc. Call the risen Savior into your situations you face today.

When Jesus makes a difference in your life, life begins to make sense. He's alive! He can make the difference. He is risen! He is risen indeed!

Read James 1 for next week.
