He Is Risen

Meditation
Written By Matthew St. John

Good Friday ends with three words: It is finished.

Easter begins with three more: He is risen.

Everything changes.

The resurrection tells us suffering is not the end. Pain is real—but it does not get the final word.

It assures us that justice and goodness are not naïve hopes. God is setting things right—even now.

And it reveals that the “more” we long for—the beauty, the fullness, the life that lasts—is real.

Jesus defeated sin and death. Forgiveness is offered. New life is available.

So the invitation remains:

Confess. Believe. Come.

Because He is risen—

and nothing is the same.
