MARY MAGDALENE

Read: John 20:1-18

They asked her, "Woman, why are you crying?" "They have taken my Lord away," she said, "and I don't know where they have put him." John 20:13 NIV

     Mary Magdalene was one of the devout women who supplied the needs of Jesus and His disciples throughout His ministry. She had been delivered from demon possession as were others who followed Him.

Mary Magdalene stood at the foot of the cross with Mary, the mother of Jesus and later she came to the tomb to grieve - instead she had an encounter with angels. Then she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, so changed that she did not realize that it was He ─ until He said her name,"Mary."  then she turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, "Rabboni!" (20:16)

Mary Magdalene was forgiven much and she loved much. Her life was dedicated to the ministry and to being a friend to other believers. God chose her to be the first one to see her risen Lord.

     Thank You Jesus that You came to set people like Mary free from their sin. Help me to show my love for you by serving other believers.
