Celebration of Christ: Jesus, the risen Galilean

After the resurrection of Christ a group of women encountered him. After worshiping him Jesus told them “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” Galilee is not just the home of our Lord Jesus Christ it is also a place of divine encounter. It is a place set aside for encountering the risen Lord. With the ascension of Christ into heaven and with the coming of the Holy Spirit, our Lord Jesus Christ is no longer limited to the earthly Galilee. He is everywhere. Child of God, with faith you can encounter the Risen Lord anywhere you find yourself. With faith you will see him in your nation, your family and even in your fellow human being. And it shall be well with you in Jesus name - Amen!
