It Will Not Be Dark
John 20:1-18

Charles Kingsley was a very gifted and renowned Anglican preacher. Some years ago both he and his wife lay terminally ill in different rooms of the same hospital. They communicated by writing notes. One day his wife had a message sent to him that read: "My darling, is it cowardly of me to tremble before the unseen reality of death." He wrote back "Do not be afraid! It will not be dark, because God is light. There will be no loneliness for Christ will be there." That is our resurrection hope.
