Mary and the Angels

Nov 24 – Mary Magdalene and the angels  – John 20:11-13

     Mary was still at the tomb crying when two angels appeared in the tomb.  One at top of the tomb where Jesus’ head was and the other at the place where Jesus’ feet was.  They asked Mary why she was crying.  She replied that someone had taken away Jesus’ body and she did not know where they had taken it.  The reality of the situation had not fully dawn on her.  All the facts had not yet fallen into place.  Mary would see things differently in just a moment of time but at this time her emotions and the reality of the situation were guiding her reactions.  Never let your emotions and perception of God be dictated by the reality of the moment.  God may still have more to teach and show you.  Solomon said that we are trust the Lord with all our heart and not to lean on our own understanding but in all ways acknowledge Him and He will direct our path.  Always trust God because the full answer to your question is on the way.  The timing is God’s not ours.
