A guided time with God through prayer and reflection on Scripture. This is the third of three reflective shorts focused on John chapter 20, the chapter of resurrection. "On the first day of the week, while it was still dark..." These words are filled with meaning and richness, specifically for those who are emerging from a season of difficulty. Enter into the pain and joy of Mary Magdalene as she approaches the tomb, collapses in grief, then meets the gardener, a prophetic mistake. Take the pause needed to hear Him speak your name.
