The “Empty” Promises of Easter
In the quiet of the early morning a group of women are making their way to the tomb. The crowds are gone, the spectacle is over. All that remains is the heavy weight of sorrow as they make their way to Jesus’ resting place as the sun begins to break away the darkness. In that moment they all carry the emptiness that remains from the events of these recent days. Without knowing, soon these women would exchange the emptiness of their despair with the glory of their risen Lord. Through the empty cross and empty tomb God declares His promise of salvation to all who believe and receive. Promises that can never be broken because they are established now and for eternity.
