1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.
2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.
5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?
6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:
7 ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’

Rick your photo is stunning, I love the font for your word choice and what a beautiful post for Easter. I only wish I could open up the links, I don't open a single thing due to the cost of data here... I'm being a 'good' student in that sense, now to really get to my studies! lol
I hope you had a wonderful Easter with your family near by, take care and God bless.
Cheers... from the land down under.
Lots of sweet beijos and friendship.
Missed you...
Warm hug from Brasil.
