- John 20:11-18
Mary Magdalene had only one thing in mind - to find the body of Jesus, which she thought had been stolen. So, she disregards the question Jesus asks and gets right to the matter at hand. Are you the one who moved Jesus' body, and will you help get it back?
She doesn't realize that she is saying this to the risen Lord himself.
How can someone who believes in Jesus, meet Jesus and not know it's Jesus?
Well, he wasn't what she had expected. His risen body was transformed.
I wonder if there are times when the Lord is present to us in a special way and we miss it because it's not what we expected.
Like right now?
