Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord”; and she told them that he had said these things to her. ~John 20:18 Mary, the tower of faith, who seems not to have faltered, marvels at this astonishing turn. Who would think that such a turn could be possible? Do we? In this moment of loss, in this era of embittered and embattled sides, this season of denial and disappointment, this time of trials and tribulations, in this season of isolation could we really imagine something new? And yet, you feel it, don’t you? You sense something emerging. Something growing. Sprouts of possibility. We are becoming awake. All it takes is a word. Marvel. Enter into worship.
