The prayer
Written prayerDearest Jesus, We all want love with flesh on it. It must have been hard not to reach out and touch you when you were standing right in front of her. My first instinct would have been to reach out and hug you after I thought you were dead. It would have been difficult not to cry and cling to you. I love that you appeared to a woman and told her to tell my brothers that you ascended to YOUR father and THERE father and to YOUR GOD and THERE God! What joyous words! You fully identified with them and let them know that even as you ascended so would they since they were all family now. I am part of your family and your father is my father and your God is my God. We are of the same family. This earth is not my home. How amazing! What encouragement and validation. Jesus, you and I are one. We are bound together throughout eternity. Thank you Jesus for the price you paid to redeem me and translated me into your eternal kingdom to live with you. Thank you that you are my brother, savior, Lord, and soon coming king. In Jesus name, amen.
