Everyone knows Mary; she saw Jesus' empty tomb. But Joanna was with her (Luke 24:10).
A group of women hiked out to the tombs on that Sunday morning expecting to prepare their Master's body properly for burial. They brought spices and myrrh, good company and great sorrow. When they arrived, the tomb was open, but they couldn't find Jesus anywhere. And then Joanna saw angels and heard their famous question and answer, "Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen!" God blessed Joanna to experience that first Resurrection Morning, and invited her, the same way He does us, "Come and see where the Lord lay!" Happy Easter! He is risen! Comments are closed.
