| A Most Beautiful Day! |

20:13 They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him." 20:14 Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus. 20:15 Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away." 20:16 Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).
Every day is a spectacular day, a fresh start, a new beginning – unlike all the days that have gone before. And wonderful things can happen today. Just look at the glorious sunrise. It is there every morning — even if you have to soar above the clouds in your life to see it.
Life is incredible — inspirational! Nature is blooming with beauty all around us. Observe and enjoy. People care deeply about family, friends, and even strangers — and yes, a few cherish you. Feel the love — then spread it around.
Yet the splendor of human life — mine and yours — is often obscured by the ordinary; misplaced in the mundane. We can’t see the glory in the trees.
One morning a woman who felt like she had lost her reason to live — all her hopes and dreams had been crushed — forced herself out of bed and went to a fresh grave site to mourn. But she found the unthinkable — the grave had been tampered with and the body removed.
In her suffering and grief, she saw an ordinary man. She thought he was the gardener. “Where have you taken Him?” she cried in hopeless desperation.
He said her name. That’s all. Her name. And in that moment of misery she recognized in the ordinary the most extraordinary!
There is so much more to life than meets the eye. Our possibilities are limitless. Behold the beauty. Dare to dream. Dare to hope. Dare to make a better world!

Nice thought Steve...........
I also find it interesting that the Word of Truth can stand right in front of us, yet we do not recognize it, due to our expectations of another form. The True Word must first invite Us to know it before we can walk with it.
