the story of Martha page 30

the story of Martha page 30 by ric gustafson


One day, there was a knock on the back gate.
Martha opened it to reveal her friend Tobias. " Tobias, I was worried about you" she said as she gave  the young man a hug. " What news do you have from Jerusalem?".
" The disciples are hiding in an upper room".
" Won't  Judas and the soldiers find them?".
Her friend shook his head. " They found Judas hanging from a tree in the Potter's field".
" You have more news".
" Some women went to the tomb early on the first day of the week and noticed that the large stone guarding the tomb had been rolled away". " These women said that Jesus was not there".
A startled look came over Martha. " Tobias, what are you saying?".
" Just like your brother, Jesus rose from the dead".
