Alleluia!
PRAISE THE LORD
Have you ever felt like something was finished
before you were ready for it to be over?
It was the first day of the week. Mary Magdalene came to the grave early in the morning while it was still dark. She saw that the stone had been pushed away from the grave. She ran to Simon Peter and the other follower whom Jesus loved.
She said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the grave. We do not know where they have put Him.”
John 20:1-2 New Life Version (NLV)

the other follower whom Jesus loved.

John 20:1-2 New Life Version (NLV)
Then Peter and the other follower went to the grave. They ran but the other follower ran faster than Peter and
came to the grave first. He got down and looked in and saw the linen cloths but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came and went into the grave. He saw the linen cloths lying there. The white cloth that had been around the head of Jesus was
not lying with the other linen cloths.
It was rolled up and lying apart by itself. Then the other
follower, who had come first, went in also. He saw and believed. They still did not understand that the Holy Writings meant when they said that He must rise again from the dead. Then the followers went back again to their homes.

Mary stood outside the grave crying. As she cried, she got down and looked inside the grave. She saw two angels dressed in white clothes. They were sitting where the body of Jesus had lain. One angel was where His head had lain and one angel was where His feet had lain. They said to her, “Woman, why are you crying?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord. I do not know where they have put Him.”

After saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there. But she did not know that it was Jesus. He said to her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for?” She thought He was the man who cared for the garden. She said to Him, “Sir, if you have taken Jesus from here, tell me where you have put Him.
I will take Him away.” Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned around and said to Him, “Teacher!”
