A Very Large Stone

Do you have any "very large stones" in your life?

"But when they looked up they saw the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away." Mark 16:4
I'm not sure why, but this one verse is what struck me this week. To get a better picture of this story read verses 1-8 in Mark 16.

Here are some things that I gathered from this story:

1. They started out even though they had no idea how the stone would be moved.

2. When they looked up, they saw...

3. When they looked inside the tomb, they didn't find what they were expecting.

4. Even though it was so much better, they were afraid.

5. Because of fear they didn't say anything to anyone.

My friend, don't be afraid when God is moving "stones" in your life and doing things you weren't expecting, because what He wants to do is so much bigger than what you could ever ask or think or imagine! Don't let the fear keep you from seeing the life He wants to give.
