Early on Sunday morning, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance.

John 20:1 NLT

I wonder what prompted Mary that Sunday morning, while it was still dark, to go to the tomb?

What did she expect to find there? In the dark?

Maybe she couldn't sleep, maybe something was stirring in her spirit to go and seek Jesus, that something was going on, that something Jesus said stuck with her and in the dark, in the early morning, she went to find Jesus.

And Mary got to see that everything had changed, the stone had been rolled away. 

Don't wait for the daylight to go and look for Jesus, don't wait until you've got yourself sorted, come as you are. 

And just like Mary, we'll see that the stone has moved, death is no longer in charge, Life has broken out.

Resurrection.

Sometime in the night, Jesus came back, was brought back, from death, to life. 

And everything has changed.

Resurrection.

And this is the hope that we now hold, the living hope that is Jesus, that even though we will experience death, the stone has been rolled away, and on the other side of death is Life. 

Sometime in the night Life broke through and everything changed. 

The stone's been rolled away and as the dawn breaks we get to live on the Light.
