Today’s Scripture: Luke 24:35, ESV- “Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.”
The two men who had encountered Jesus on the road to Emmaus hurried back to tell the disciples what had happened to them. Jesus had explained, interpreted, and expounded for them all that the scriptures had said about Him. Luke 24:36 tells us that while they were telling their story Jesus appeared in the room with them.
We need to hurry and tell how Jesus is explaining, interpreting, and expounding Himself to us too. We each have had different experiences and stories with Jesus. Whether we were running to Him as Mary was to His tomb earlier in this chapter or whether we are encountering Him along our roads we each have a story.
A story of how we came to recognize Jesus and what He said to us. He has asked us, no, He has commanded us to go and share the story He has given us.
What is your Jesus story? Are you telling it?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for raising Jesus from the dead. Thank You, Jesus, for proving this to us. I am thankful for how You have appeared to others and to me. I will tell my story and pray You will open the eyes of others and use me. I am trusting that Jesus is with me when I am telling my story. LORD, help us make disciples of all nations. Use me LORD. Amen.
