They are buried as natural human bodies, but they will be raised as spiritual bodies. For just as there are natural bodies, there are also spiritual bodies." The message of this scriptural passage opens for us the understanding of Christ's ability to be with us always, to appear when troubled times occur and to reassure us that Christ was there on that lonely roadside. That Christ appears and disappears so as not to be a constant vision allows us to be independent and resourceful on our own. This way we do not become dependent on ourselves and Christ and become individuals with no connection to the outside world or others around us, but rather family with one another. Christ was there on that roadside just as He was on the roadside near Emmaus. Christ is with us. We just have not recognized Him possibly because as in Luke 24: 16 "but God kept them from recognizing Him. Then we end with verse 31: "Suddenly their eyes were opened, and they recognized Him. And at that moment He disappeared." Jesus has a special way of entering into our lives and being present when we need Him the most, we are just blind to realizing His role or the role He has played. Pastor Sean Brandow asked "where was God?" as we all did. God was there in our soul and souls of the ones lost, in the souls of the paramedics and the ambulance drivers, in the soul of the doctors and nurses and in the souls of all the parents and friends. Christ was there, helping when human hands and minds could do no more, there when we needed Him the most. Christ was there.
