9When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene,out of whom he had driven seven demons. 10She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. 11When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it.
12Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country.13These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either.
14Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
Thoughts: This passage was full of those who would not believe their eyes about Jesus. There are always doubters and doubt in any church. But we do not need to wallow in it. Rather we should let the resurrection of Jesus give us the power we need to make a difference in life and in death.
Prayer: Do not let my doubts or the doubts of others keep me from believing in you.
