wonder of his love: resurrecting love

wonder of his love: resurrecting love by ric Gustafson


In John 11: 25-26, Jesus says that he is the resurrection and the life. Jesus wants us to experience his resurrecting love. In the Gospel of Mark, we hear the story of a synagogue ruler named Jairus. His twelve year old daughter was at the point of death. He begged Jesus to come to her. As they were going to his home, word came that the girl had already died. Jesus reassured him by saying don't be afraid just believe. Jesus took the child's hand and told her to get up. Instantly, she rose and began to walk around.
One day we will shed our failing mortal bodies. Then we will be outfitted in a glorious new body that is made to live eternally.
Jesus's resurrecting love asks only that we just believe.
