“They have taken my Lord away.”
- John 20:13
Listen to the tone of desperation, and almost exasperation, in her voice.
Jesus just resurrected. And Mary, who sat everyday and never left her Master’s burial place, save for this day, worried at the sight of an empty tomb.
What would you have done, if the only thing that mattered most was taken away from you? Wouldn’t you have given anything just to get it back?
I share her hopelessness. I can never imagine a life without my God—the God who loves me in spite of my shortcomings.
