🌸 Easter Sunday – Not What Was Expected
They came expecting to anoint a dead body. Instead, they found an empty tomb, folded grave clothes, and two angels declaring, “He is not here, but has risen.” In Luke 24:1–12, the women who had followed Jesus were the first to hear the resurrection news—and it was not what they expected.
“Not What Was Expected” invites us to reflect on the many ways God surprises us with grace. The resurrection of Jesus overturns every earthly expectation. In place of mourning, we are given joy. In place of death, we receive life. And in place of fear, Christ speaks peace.
📖 Key Takeaways
The resurrection confronts our expectations and reshapes our hope.
God often works in ways we do not anticipate—but always for our good.
Like the women at the tomb, we are called to believe and proclaim.
