Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 4/5/26 by Pastor Steve Shields.
What you find at the wrong tomb. A sadness that you long to escape. You look for ways to cover it up, to hide it even from yourself with things like substance abuse, constant busyness, sensuality, getting smarts, more stuff. You also find a cynicism that you cannot shake when looking at the wrong tomb. When struggling with cynicism you are almost always looking in the wrong direction. You find a despair that paints everything black when at the wrong tomb.
Think about these symptoms. A sadness that you long to escape. A cynicism that you cannot shake. A despair that paints everything black.
What you find in the empty tomb. A peace that rises above your circumstances. A relief that Jesus can be trusted. A reason to live well – to persevere and not despair.
Today’s Spirit-led choice: I will turn to the Living One, trusting Him and following Him.
