Day 18

Today's thought is similar to Day 16, but in another way. You see it's easy to understand that Christ died on the cross. If there is any statistic that I believe it's that we all have a 100% chance of dying. History is clear on this fact. We will all die at some point. What separates today from all other days is that over 2000 years ago in the mideast He got up again. Wrestle with that thought for a moment. He was dead....I mean no pulse dead. On the third day though, He got up. That is not easy to grasp. Could you have imagined being there. What was it like to stand at the mouth of the tomb and see the impossible. How do you explain that one? How can you not believe in a God who does that? He got up and conquered the only thing that we can't.....death. He beat the 100% odds that are against us.

Today I am thankful that there was an empty tomb that leaves me no choice but to believe in the one God who got up again.
