(Irishcast) The Lord Lives (Psalm 18v46 Luke 24v46)

Our Messiah who is raised from the dead is Jesus. And Jesus gets the last laugh on death. The Grim Reaper does its best to undermine all our hope with its power to bring life to an end. But death has lost it sting. Christ, the Messiah, has been raised. And because He lives, we will live also. “Tears may linger for a nightfall, but joy comes in the morning”(Ps 30:5). So you and I get to express our joy in laughter because death’s reign will soon come to an end and life will be forever. (Painting of The Laughing Jesus is by Richard Caemmerer)
