Prayer: We see your love in the miracle of the empty tomb and the wonder of the world around us. Thank you for life everlasting and the blessings of each day. Amen
Reading: John 20: 1-18 (Click to read text) Stop and GROW: After reading the text, discuss/ponder the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Book of Faith questions, which are part of Camp Mount Luther's GROW Time with campers. QUESTION 1: What scares, confuses, challenges, or doesn’t make sense to me in this text? QUESTION 2: What delights me in this text or is my favorite part of the story? QUESTION 3: What stories or memories does this text stir in me? QUESTION 4: What is God up to in this text? Reflection: The greatest miracle of all was when Jesus rose from the dead three days after His crucifixion. This was according to God’s plan and was foretold by the Old Testament prophets. God is almighty. He rules whether or not we believe. God’s mighty acts can be seen when you watch the rain fall, or the wind bending the trees, or the waves cresting on the shore, or a mountain stream tumbling over the rocks, or just a rainbow. What more is there to say? God is great. God is good. -- Alice Yeakel
