He Is Risen!

As I celebrate my risen Savior, Jesus, I am reminded of these words:

I commend Jesus to you this morning, whoever you are. If he is not the joy of your heart, he wants to be. He says in John 6:35, "I am the bread of life, he who comes to me shall not hunger and he who believes in me shall never thirst"—NEVER! An unbroken line of satisfaction in Jesus from the now to eternity.

This is the word of the risen Jesus to us this morning—to all of us who will take him as our joy! "You will see me . . . and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you." [John 16:22]

John Piper

May you rise with hope in your heart and joy in your life this Resurrection morning.
