Reading: John 20:17-18; 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Devotional: Mary came to the tomb as a mourner and left as a messenger. Her testimony was simple but powerful: "I have seen the Lord." The resurrection transformed her grief into witness, her sorrow into proclamation. God doesn't waste your pain. The comfort you've received from Christ becomes the comfort you can offer others. Your story of encountering Jesus—however imperfect or incomplete—matters. You don't need all the answers to share what you've experienced. The church's message has always been beautifully simple: Jesus is alive, and meeting Him changes everything. Your past darkness, present struggles, and future hope all become part of how God uses you to point others to the risen Savior.
Reflection: How has encountering Jesus changed your story? Who needs to hear about it?
