“He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying.”
-Matthew 28:6, NLT
Too often, the story of Easter is misapplied to infidelity situations as to mean God will resurrect your marriage.
I think I lived in that world of false hope personally. It had nothing to do with what people told me explicitly. I just did not want to face a difficult reality.
Resurrection Sunday can speak to a different lesson though:
God creates a beautiful future outside of what we could ever hope or imagine for ourselves!
This is what I have experienced personally. God moves in ways I have not always anticipated over the years. Sometimes–often, to be honest–I thought I knew better, but God always brought me to a better place in the end even though it may have been a painful journey to get there.
