“This Story is Still Told”
So fill us with the presence of the resurrected Jesus, so fill us with real life, O God, that our lives will continue the true story of his resurrection.
Protect us from the kind of dead and deadening lives, O God, that would make it hard for anyone to believe that we serve a risen Savior.
Amen.
“While they were going, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests everything that had happened. After the priests had assembled with the elders, they devised a plan to give a large sum of money to the soldiers, telling them, ‘You must say, “His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.” If this comes to the governor’s ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.’ So they took the money and did as they were directed. And this story is still told among the Jews to this day.” (Matthew 28:11-15)
