BLESSINGS OF THE CROSS - DAY 28

BLESSINGS OF THE CROSS - DAY 28

 They asked each other, “Who will roll the stone away from
the entrance of the tomb?” MARK 1 6 : 3 ( N I V )

The women who had been so faithfully
vigilant at the cross during the long hours of Jesus’
suffering returned together first thing Sunday morning
to complete the embalming process that Joseph and
Nicodemus had hastily done late Friday afternoon.
Their voices could be heard in the brisk early morning
air as they discussed the problem of how they would roll
the stone away. They knew it would be impossible for
them to accomplish, even if all of them pushed together.
What stone, what obstacle is ahead of you that you think
you can’t move or get around, that blocks you from
fulfilling your commitment to the Lord? Is it the stone
of financial limitations? Practical inexperience? Physical
weakness?
If we steadfastly cling to our faith in Him, persevering
in our commitment to Him, He will roll away the stones
for us!
