Resurrection Morning

It was not just another morning,
much the same as every morning
that had come before.

It was the morning to celebrate
joy in front of an empty tomb,
although those gathered there 
          did not yet realize.

It is a morning of celebration,
because the Lamb of God
has taken away condemnation
          for those who believe 

... “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,  for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” ~Romas 10:8-13 NIV

For those who believe
death is like going to sleep in the evening,
and in the morning opening your eyes
in God's beautiful garden.
