Acts 1:9-11

The story didn’t end at the empty tomb. Nor did it end when Jesus ascended into heaven. As His followers stood gazing at the sky, awestruck and unsure, they were reminded that the same Jesus who went up will one day return. Can you imagine standing there? Watching your Savior rise in glory, leaving behind the echoes of victory over death? That moment wasn’t a goodbye. It was a commissioning. Easter reminds us not only of what Jesus has done, but of what He’s coming back to complete. This same Jesus, full of mercy, truth, and power, is preparing a place for us. And until He comes again, we’ve been called. Called to go, to share, and to shine His light. The cross wasn’t the end. The tomb wasn’t the end. Even the sky couldn’t contain Him. Jesus lives. And because He lives, we live with purpose. So let’s not stand still staring at the clouds. Let’s live boldly, joyfully, and expectantly. And do so carrying Easter in our hearts every day until we see Him return.

Matthew 28:19-20

Jesus didn’t just rise, He sent. He gave His followers, and now us, a mission. “Go and make disciples… baptize… teach… and know that I am with you always.” These words were His final instructions and our ongoing purpose. Such a love as was demonstrated by Jesus on the Cross, was never meant to be silent. So out of hearts overflowing with gratitude, we go. With deep reverence for Christ’s sacrifice, we share. And moved by love for our Savior, we scatter seeds for His kingdom. Seeds that, through His Spirit, will blossom into a harvest of transformed hearts, restored lives, and souls brought into His saving grace. And these things that we do aren’t done in our own strength, but with Christ’s authority. All to share the love that changed everything. The story doesn’t end at the empty tomb, it continues with us. Let’s go out with passion, purpose, and love. And live the Resurrection every single day!

Mark 16:15

The message of Easter, the triumph of Christ over sin and death, is too precious to keep to ourselves. It’s a message of hope, redemption, and eternal life. And one meant to be shared with everyone we encounter. That’s why in Mark we are given the call to go throughout the earth, sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with others. And to be living witnesses of His love and grace in our everyday lives. Whether it’s through sharing our testimonies, inviting others to church, or simply living out our faith with authenticity and compassion, we have the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of those around us. So in the spirit of Easter, let us pray for divine opportunities to share the hope and joy that we have found in Christ. To go forth, fulfilling the Great Commission boldly and courageously. Knowing that when we proclaim the Gospel and others receive Jesus as their Savior, lives will be changed, hearts will be transformed, and souls will be saved for the glory of God.

Mark 16:15

I’m thankful for the privilege of being able to share the gospel of Jesus Christ 

Never once did Jesus stray from fulfilling God’s will. He followed the Father’s plan to the letter, no matter the cost to Himself. And before He ascended to the right hand of God, Jesus passed down the commission to share His gospel throughout the earth. This command was given not only to His disciples, but to us as well. The mission of saving souls is a serious one. It was the reason Jesus, “emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.” (Phil. 2:7) His entire ministry was dedicated to evangelizing the world. And when He ascended into heaven, His work on earth ended and ours began. Now it’s up to us to go out throughout the lands and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. And knowing that each soul saved brings great joy to God, (Luke 5:10) how wonderful it is to be able to spread the Good News of His everlasting mercy!

Acts 1:8

Just like the early disciples, one of the wonderful privileges we get as Christians is to partner up with Jesus. And as His followers the Lord gives us all the same commission, to be His ambassadors upon the earth. Ambassadors who go about the world spreading the gospel to all who would hear. And because God never calls us to accomplish His will alone, He sends the gift of the Holy Spirit to indwell all believers. God’s Spirit speaks to us in His “still, small voice,” (1 Kings 19:12) empowering and leading us to where God needs us the most. And in a darkened world, shining examples of God’s love and grace are desperately needed. So may we answer God’s call, and become His beacons of light!
