TRIUMPH OVER
THE GRAVE
Death may steal from us
the ones we love, but for fol-
lowers of Christ the separation ■
is only temporary. The resur-
rection of Jesus assures us that
just as death could not hold
Him, so too the tomb cannot
cling to the children, parents,
: tioads and companions who
have died before us. Christ’s
resurrection is the foundation
of our hope.
American evangelist D.L.
Moody (1837-1899) told of a
soldier at the battle of Inkerman
(Crimean War, 1854) who was
somehow able to crawl back to
his tent after he was shot.
When he was later found, he
was lying face-down, his open
Bible before him, his hand stuck
to one of the pages by his
blood which covered it. When
his hand was lifted, some of the
words from the printed page
were clearly visible on it.
The verse was this: “I am
the resurrection and the life. He
who believes in Me, though he
may die, he shall live” (John
12:25). Said Moody, “I want a
religion like that, which can
comfort even in death, and
unite me with my loved ones.
What gloom and darkness
would settle upon this world
were it not for the glorious truth
of the resurrection."
If you are grieving, find
your comfort in this: Because
Jesus lives, we shall live also!
The resurrection is God’s an-
swer of hope to man's cry of
despair.
