Jesus said, "Peace be unto you."
Imagine you were with the disciples in the Upper Room; the doors are locked. Everyone is afraid of the Jewish leaders coming after them.
Not only were they fearful, for their lives, but they lost their rock, Jesus. The man they leaned on, and depended on. He was with them for over 3 years, teaching them. Their friend. They could always count on Him. They ate with Him, played, slept, and prayed with Him. Now He was gone.
Their whole world had been turned upside down. They didn't know what to do. They were in the upper room, the last place they had been with Jesus.
What is it like for you sitting there with the disciples?
Then suddenly, a man appeared in the room. They aren't sure who He is and they are wondering how he got in the locked room.
The man says, "Peace be unto you." When he said this, he held out His hands and shewed them His side. It was Jesus.
Can you imagine how thrilled the disciples were to see Him. Their joy knew no bounds. There world was turning right-side up again.
You are with them in the room, how do you feel? The man who was cruicified, dead and buried is here with you again.Truly He is the Son of God.
Blessings!
