The after effects of a storm, disaster or crisis are often called the aftermath. The aftermath may include homes that have been destroyed, cities that have been devastated, or people who have been killed. Rarely do we find something positive in the aftermath. However, in the aftermath of Jesus’ death, there were many “signs of life,” including the resurrection of Jesus, a new mission, the gift of the Holy Spirit and explosive growth of the Church. The cross was not the end of the story; and neither will our crisis be the end of the story. God has something greater yet to come.
