“Resurrection Revelations:
The God Who Dwells With Us”
|
|
The trials of life are manifest. There are all kinds of things that can bring us to tears. Death is a constant threat and reality. People mourn, cry and experience pain of all kinds. The question always comes to mind: “Where is God in all this?” As we continue our Easter series, “Resurrection Revelations”, we are presented with a vision of the Last Day when Christ returns. When He does, “the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be His people.” This vision gives us hope that the risen Christ IS present with us, dwelling among us and in us through His all-powerful Word and Sacraments. We can trust that God is with us in Christ in the midst of the trials of life, even as we look forward to when we will see Him face-to-face! |
