Happy Easter–Resurrection Sunday!

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

-Matthew 28:6, NIV

To all those wondering if life exists after discovering infidelity and divorce, I would point to Resurrection Sunday.

Hope exists even when it might look hopeless.

I remember a particular Easter now five years ago when things were completely bleak. My (then) wife had already decided not to bother celebrating Easter with me.

It was merely a matter of time until she became my ex-wife.

For those having that sort of Easter this year, I want to encourage you. It does get better. Life–yes, even abundant life–does exist on the other side.

I say this as one who has seen both ends.

Resurrection Sunday stands as a reminder that however bleak the circumstances–like God Himself being killed!–nothing is beyond God’s redemptive power.

He is risen, indeed! Hallelujah!!
