Rise Every Day: What Jesus’s Resurrection Means for Us

Sunday, April 5, 2026

Jesus’s comeback is not just a story from the past; it shows how we can get up again today.

When two travelers on a lonely road in Emmaus met someone who walked with them, they did not notice him at first. Only after he shared a meal and spoke the Bible did their eyes open. That moment reminds us that people can help each other without even realizing it.

We are all on our own “Emmaus” journeys, dealing with hard times. A friend who listens, asks questions, and offers support can be just as powerful as a miracle. By walking beside someone in pain, we become their light and give them hope.

Jesus’s rise was a promise that death—whether of bodies, dreams, or joy—can be overcome. It also says we can live fully, share kindness, and help those who feel forgotten or hurt. When we act with love, we become the hands and feet that Jesus wanted to use.

The story ends with a simple truth: love can bring life where there was only death. It invites everyone, even those who doubt or feel lost, to believe that a better tomorrow is possible.
