It had been three long days. The echos of the cross still filled the air. There was a darkness that was palpable, a sense of dread that was all consuming. Fear permeated the landscape, powered by an inconceivable loss. Hope was dead. But in the distance was a sound. The sound of earth moving, of foundations rattling. The sound of God taking back the world He loved. Darkness had been flooded with light, fear had been overtaken by hope. and death had been swallowed in victory. In that moment, sin lost its power, the grave lost its sting, and evil was left broken in defeat. He is victorious. He is triumphant. He is risen. Jesus…is alive.
