JOHNSTONE THE SALVATION ARMY In recent weeks _ we have observed a significant holiday in -our calendar year Easter. The Easter season is the time dur- ing which we remember the death of Jesus Christ on the cross and then celebrate His victorious resurrection from the dead. Following the resurrection Jesus ap- peared to'His disciples many tinges. The ac- count of one 6f these occasions reads this way: "While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, 'Peace be with; you.' They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, 'Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds'? Look at my hands and my feet. Itis I myself. Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.' When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet." (Luke 24: 3611) The disciples were afraid of the Jews and were- hiding at this point. They had good reason to fear the Jews for it was them who had, crucified Jesus. Here were Jesus' followers still in the city- who knows what might have happened to them. Here we find them, gathered together, with all of the doors locked discussing the events of the few days past. Imagine the confusion of their hearts and minds as they -tried to understand what all of this meant. They had heard that Jesus had risen. That he was alive and yet, they knew that He had died; some of them had watched Him die. How could He now live? Here He stood in their midst.f-low? Even when Jesus had shown them the scars of the wounds He had suffered we see that they were still not able to understand fully. Jesus then takes the time to explain to them from the Scriptures in order that they might more fully comprehend the whole situation and all of its implications. Without Jesus coming to them and helping them to 'understand that all that had happen- ed was in fulfillment of the ancient Scrip- tures - they would never have known or understand it all. How often we are like the disciples in that room that day. We don't completely understand some things that happen in our lives and in fear we hide away from those things that would confound us. The disciples were hiding because they didn't know what to do or who to turn to in their fear. They were afraid of the uncer- tainties which lay ahead of them. So are we many times, aren't we? Afraid of what lies ahead of us. Afraid of things we du not understand or cannot explain. Yet, here, in their fear and uncertainty Jesus comes to them and, after they believed it was Him, He opens their minds and hearts to understand these things. So too, when Jesus comes to -us through His Holy Spirit we are made aware of the great truths, once we have recognized Him as Lord. Jesus promised to His Disciples that they uld be clothed with the power of the Holy S r'irit to complete the tasks to which tl►ey h "ji been called. This same power is ord- e x o us if we would but ask Him for it. e need not live our lives in fear Of the certainties that sirround us from day to d but rather, we must look to Jesus as our so ce of strength and understanding in -all ar as of our lives. - esus came to His followers at varied ples and times during the forty days fo ,t wing His resurrection. They were pre , - red by this appearing and disappear- ing of the Lord to have constant fellowship wit ; the unseen Master. They learned that the were in His presence all the time wh her He was seen or unseen. s can be our experience as well. Jesus doe not leave us alone in our fear and unc dainty - He comes to us and helps us to and rstand the mysteries of life that might oth ise confuse' us. e you experiencing any dark clouds of disa `pointment or fear of the uncertainties whi might lie ahead ofyou? V atever your situation today, the Resur- rect d Jesus wants to bring the light and understanding, to your heart and mind. Let Him speak to you as He spoke to the disci les in room so many years ago. He kno w �_s what you are feeling; He knows the answers to your questions. Let Hirn into your life today and have no fear. , Auxiliary jiears about youth work The Arthur Circle Auxiliary meeting was held Apr. 15 in Knox Church parlor.
