The disciples came to the tomb with the wrong expectation, they came to the tomb thinking He was dead. They had forgotten Jesus had previously told them time and time again that He would rise on the third day. The disciples were human like we are, but it had caused them to act in a way that was inconsistent with who that God had made them to be. If we’re not careful we will do exactly the same thing. 

It is so vital that we learn to live with the expectations set before us in this book. The disciples looked at their circumstances and expected Him to be dead when He is alive. Like them our eyes can tell us lies, that things are a certain way when the reality is, God is bringing us to the moment in our life to do for us what only He can do. We’re not here because we’re great, but He is, and it’s time for us to give our Resurrected Savior, “An Easter Response.”
